English to fit the music

 

1.
My brother, let's climb to Calvary!
Where God sent Messiah to die on the Tree.
The Holy Truth preached and the sick He made well—
But now He is sentenced to suffer our Hell.
Fall down before Him!


2.
My brother, let's climb to Calvary!
O see how He suffers, His cheeks with fever burn.
He cries then He thirsts! Vinegar they then show
To the One who caused waters of life to o'erflow.
Fall down before Him!


3.
My brother, let's climb to Calvary!
"Forgive them, they know not their sin," is His plea.
Then let us ascend so that for us in Heav'n,
Christ's prayers to the Father ascend as they're giv'n.
Fall down before Him!


4.
My brother, let's climb to Calvary!
To Heaven He lifts up His eyes in agony:
"O My Father, why hast Thou forsaken Me?"
O_my brother, it was so that we could be free.
Fall down before Him!


5.
My brother, let's climb to Calvary!
For there are the Sufferer's Words that ring so free.
Hear Him cry "It's Finished! My Spirit I give!"
For us He was offered that we may then live.
Fall down before Him!


6.
My brother, let's climb to Calvary!
Our sinfulness' poison, oh, let us truly see
In Christ's bitter cup that He drank on the Cross;
Our richest gains came at immeasurable cost.
Fall down before Him!
