Verse 1
D A
Though the earth cried out for blood
Bm7 G
Satisfied her hunger was
D A
Billows calmed on raging seas
Bm7 G
For the souls of men she craved
D A
Sun and moon from balcony
Bm7 G
Turned their head in disbelief
D A
Precious Love would taste the sting
Bm7 G
Disfigured and disdained
Chorus
D A G D
On Friday a thief on Sunday a King
A G D
Laid down in grief but woke with the keys
Bm7 A G D
Of hell on that day the first born of the slain
Bm7 A G D
The Man Jesus Christ laid death in His grave
Interlude 1
[trumpet]
D A Bm7 G
Verse 2
D A
So three days in darkness slept
Bm7 G
The Morning Son of righteousness
D A
But rose to shame the throes of death
Bm7 G
And overturn His rule
D A
Now daughters and the sons of men
Bm7 G
Would pay not their dues again
D A
The debt of blood they owed was rent
Bm7 G
When the day rolled anew
[Chorus]
Interlude 2
D A Bm7 G
Oh oh oh oh
Bridge

He has cheated hell and seated us above the fall
Bm7
In desperate places He paid our wages
Asus4 A Gmaj7
One once and for all
