Verse 1:

D MajorD                   A7A7
Up Cal-v’ry’s moun-tain, one dread-ful morn,
                   D MajorD
Walked Christ my Sav-ior, wea-ry and worn;
                 G+G
Fac-ing for sin-ners death on the cross,
       D MajorD     A7A7      D MajorD
That He might save them from end-less loss.

Chorus:

G+G                 D MajorD
Bless-ed Re-deem-er, pre-cious Re-deem-er!
      A augmentedA             A7A7
Seems now I see Him on Cal-va-ry’s tree,
D MajorD                  G+G
Wound-ed and bleed-ing, for sin-ners plead-ing-
       D MajorD     A7A7     D MajorD
Blind and un-heed-ing, dy-ing for me.


Verse 2:

D MajorD                  A7A7
“Fa-ther for-give them!” thus He did pray
                   D MajorD
E’en while His life-blood flowed fast a-way;
                  G+G
Pray-ing for sin-ners while in such woe-
      D MajorD   A7A7     D MajorD
No one but Je-sus ev-er loved so.


Chorus:

G+G                 D MajorD
Bless-ed Re-deem-er, pre-cious Re-deem-er!
      A augmentedA             A7A7
Seems now I see Him on Cal-va-ry’s tree,
D MajorD                  G+G
Wound-ed and bleed-ing, for sin-ners plead-ing-
       D MajorD     A7A7     D MajorD
Blind and un-heed-ing, dy-ing for me.

Verse 3:

D MajorD               A7A7
O how I love Him, Sav-ior and Friend!
                D MajorD
How can my prais-es ev-er find end?
D MajorD                  G+G
Thru years un-num-bered on heaven’s shore,
        D MajorD     A7A7    D MajorD
My tongue shall praise Him for-ev-er more.


Chorus:

G+G                 D MajorD
Bless-ed Re-deem-er, pre-cious Re-deem-er!
      A augmentedA             A7A7
Seems now I see Him on Cal-va-ry’s tree,
D MajorD                  G+G
Wound-ed and bleed-ing, for sin-ners plead-ing-
       D MajorD     A7A7     D MajorD
Blind and un-heed-ing, dy-ing for me.
