Jesus Gave His Life a Ransom Yonder on Calvary
"Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many." - Matt 20:28
VERSE 1
Jesus gave His life a ransom yonder on Calvary,
On Mount Calvary, cruel Calvary;
Paved the way by blood that we might win a bright shining crown,
Praise His holy name.
CHORUS
Praise the Lord, salvation has been bro't down,
Go and shout and tell it the world around,
Tell it today, tell it today,
Preach the word of God that we might win a crown;
Tell the lost, salvation is full and free,
Spread the news all over the land and sea,
Tell it afar, tell it afar,
Praise the Lord, salvation has been bro't down.
VERSE 2
All alone without a friend He suffered to pay it all,
Yes, He paid it all, Jesus paid it all;
In His blessed promises sweet victory can be found,
Praise His holy name.
CHORUS
Praise the Lord, salvation has been bro't down,
Go and shout and tell it the world around,
Tell it today, tell it today,
Preach the word of God that we might win a crown;
Tell the lost, salvation is full and free,
Spread the news all over the land and sea,
Tell it afar, tell it afar,
Praise the Lord, salvation has been bro't down.
VERSE 3
There's a blessed home prepared 'way over in glory land,
In bright glory land, blessed glory land;
I have trusted in His love and now I am heaven bound,
Praise His holy name.
CHORUS
Praise the Lord, salvation has been bro't down,
Go and shout and tell it the world around,
Tell it today, tell it today,
Preach the word of God that we might win a crown;
Tell the lost, salvation is full and free,
Spread the news all over the land and sea,
Tell it afar, tell it afar,
Praise the Lord, salvation has been bro't down.
