Don't Let Me Walk Too Far from Calvary

(Joyce Reba Rambo)



As long as I can see you hanging on a distant cross

Dying between two common thieves spat upon the moss

As long as I can see your open wounds that bleed for me

Then I can be what you want me to be.



But don't let me walk too far from calvary

Don't spare the agony of Gethsemane

I might soon forget the death you died for me

That's why I pray Lord, don't let me stray too far from calvary.

If I can hear the hammer ring and see your wounded side

If I can feel the pain you felt when you hung your head and died

If I can see forgiveness in your eyes of love for me

Lord I can be what you want me to be.



But don't let me walk too far from calvary

Don't spare the agony of Gethsemane

I might soon forget the death you died for me

That's why I pray Lord, don't let me stray too far from calvary.



Oh, that's why I pray God, don't let me stray too far from calvary...
