WHAT CALVARY BOUGHT

Words and Music by: Joel Hemphill
Recorded 1985 Heartwarming Records on The Hemphills EXCITED

1. Sometimes we try to hide inside the wounds that life can deal,
Or a smile may cover the pain we really feel.
But all my troubles fade away when I begin to see
What lies within the purchase the Savior made for me.

CHORUS:

In Jesus' name, I can claim all that Calvary bought;
All I ever needed, more than I ever thought.
Precious cleansing for my sin, healing for the inner man,
Victory in each battle I have fought.
In Jesus' name I claim what Calvary bought.

2. We often reconcile ourselves to all that fate can bring
And live beneath our privilege as children of the King.
We should lay aside the thought that what will be will be
And hold on to the power there is in Calvary.

CHORUS:

Tag: In Jesus' name, in Jesus' name, in Jesus' name,
I claim what Calvary bought.
