Don Moen's 'Lead Me to Calvary' is a hymn-like song that focuses on remembering the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. The lyrics express a desire to never forget the suffering Jesus endured, from Gethsemane to the cross, and to be willing to bear one's own cross daily. The song emphasizes gratitude for Christ's love and the call to follow Him in obedience and surrender. It draws on the biblical themes of the crucifixion and the believer's response of devotion.
King of my life I crown Thee now
Thine shall the glory be
Lest I forget Thy thorn-crowned brow
Lead me to Calvary
Lest I forget Gethsemane
Lest I forget Thine agony
Lest I forget Thy love for me
Lead me to Calvary
May I be willing Lord to bear
Daily my cross for Thee
Even Thy cup of grief to share
Thou hast borne all for me
