I cast my mind to Calvary

Where Jesus bled and died for me

My Saviour on that cursed tree

His body bound and drenched in tears

They laid Him down in Jo-seph's tomb
             Ab               Eb/G
The entrance sealed by heavy stone

Messiah still and all a-lone

O praise His Name for-ever more

Oh Lord, oh Lord our God

Then on the third, at break of dawn

The Son of heaven rose a-gain

O trampled death, where is your sting
           Bb                   Eb
The angels roar for Christ the King


Verse 4:
            Eb
He shall re-turn in robes of white
            Bb                    Cm
The blazing sun shall pierce the   night
           Ab              Eb/G
And I will rise among the saints
             Bb                Eb
My gaze trans-fixed on Jesus' face
