  1. (d) It was on Mount Calvary Our Saviour died.
    It was on Mount Calvary He was crucified.
    A crown of thorns on His head.
    His blessed blood began to flow.
    His blessed Mother standing by
    with a heavy heard and a mournful sigh
    As I looked up as I looked down.
    I saw the blessed Mother coming down.
    The Child Jesus in her arms.
    A prayer book in her hand.
    Twelve bells ringing
    Twelve priests singing,
    Twelve candles lighting
    Open the gates of Heaven
    Shut the gates of Hell
    And let the poor sinners enter heaven
