Lyrics

There is par­don at the cross
Where my Sav­ior died;
I will go (I will go),
I will go (I will go);
To re­claim the sin­ner lost
He was cru­ci­fied;
I will go (I will go), I will go.

Refrain

Pardon sweet and par­don free,
Pardon free and for me,
At the cross is par­don free there for me;
In the cross, the bless­èd cross,
Shall my glo­ry ev­er be,
There is par­don there for me,
Pardon free;
In the cross, the bless­èd cross,
Shall my glo­ry ev­er be,
There is par­don there for me,
Pardon free.

There is par­don thro’ the blood
That was shed for all,
I will go (I will go),
I will go (I will go);
There’s a balm in ev­ery drop
For the wound­ed soul;
I will go (I will go), I will go.

Refrain

There is mer­cy at the cross,
There is joy and peace;
I will go (I will go),
I will go (I will go);
There my faith will make me whole,
And my fear will cease,
I will go (I will go), I will go.

Refrain
