Sunday Songs

~A Hill Called Mt. Calvary~

There are things as we travel this earth shifting sands,
That transcend all the reason of man;
But the things that matter the most in this world,
They can never be held in our hand.

Refrain
I believe in a hill called Mt. Calvary,
I'll believe whatever the cost;
And when time has surrendered and earth is no more,
I'll still cling to that old rugged cross.

I believe that the Christ who was slain on the cross,
Has the power to change lives today;
For He changed me completely, a new life is mine,
That is why by the cross I will stay.

Refrain

I believe that this life with its great mysteries,
Surely someday will come to an end;
But faith will conquer the darkness and death,
And will lead me at last to my friend.

Refrain
