VERSE 1

 

 G                                  C  

        One day when heaven

Was filled with his praises

                           C                                          G

One day when sin was as black as could be

                        C                                 G

Jesus came forth to be born of a virgin

                          C                             Am7

Dwelt among men my example is He

                                    C(2)

The Word became flesh

And the light shined among us

                         C(2)

His glory revealed

 

 

CHORUS

                 G                                  D

Living He loved me  Dying He saved me

                       Em                            C

Buried He carried my sins far away

        One day they led Him

Up Calvary’s mountain

                         C                                      G

One day they nailed Him to die on a tree

                   C                                        G

Suffering anguish despised and rejected

                       C                               Am7

Bearing my sins my redeemer is He

The hand that healed nations

And took the nails for me

        One day the grave

One day the stone rolled away from the door

                     C                                       G

Then He arose over death He had conquered

Now is ascended my Lord evermore
