I prayed while you slept, and the night waged war
   Am          Em            F         C

I carried that cross, and I felt your pain

I took up your crown, and I wore your shame
    Am          Em            F           C
And death was a fire, and its teeth were grim
      Am        Em                F        C
But I left it behind, along with all your sin

I tempered the storm, though your faith was small
I prayed while you slept, and the night waged war
We stood in the fire, and we walked on sea
And we drank of the wine that was made of Me
