I thought I had to see and feel

To prove that what I loved was really real

A passion turned to ashes things I held to dust

I found reality in simple trust



My faith still holds on to the Christ of Calvary

Oh blessed Rock of Ages cleft for me

I gladly place my trust in things I can not see

My faith still holds on to the Christ of Calvary



I tried to find lives mysteries

Just by the reason of my mind to see

But void remain between me and where I longed to be

Till childlike faith there built a bridge for me



And oh what joy to walk the way

I followed nailed pierced footprints all the way

Though the end of where I'm bound I may not see

I choose to place my trust in Calvary



My faith still holds on to the Christ of Calvary

Oh blessed Rock of Ages cleft for me

I gladly place my trust in things I can not see

My faith still holds on to the Christ of Calvary



My faith still holds on to the Christ of Calvary
