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 trustMy 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 CalvaryI 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 meAnd 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 CalvaryMy 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 CalvaryMy faith still holds on to the Christ of Calvary
