Calvary Conquered My Heart

I heard this song on the radio the other day and it’s been running through my mind since. This morning, can you look back to a specific time in your life when your heart was “conquered” by Christ and His finished work at Calvary?

I was a rebel; a stranger from God

Willful and selfish, the path that I trod

Carelessly walking sin’s highway so broad

When Calvary conquered my heart

~

Just to behold Him; my Saviour so fair

Bleeding and dying in agony there

Knowing my sin in Himself He did bear

Made Calvary conquer my heart

~

Calvary conquered my heart

Calvary conquered my heart

When I gazed on the tree

Saw Christ dying for me

That’s when Calvary conquered my heart

~

Now He has won me; I’m His evermore

Gladly I’ll worship Him, love and adore

Here on earth’s journey to Heaven’s bright shore

For Calvary conquered my heart

~

Calvary conquered my heart

Calvary conquered my heart

When I gazed on the tree

Saw Christ dying for me

That’s when Calvary conquered my heart
