On The Third Day Chords

by Michael Olson - Marc Byrd and Matt Maher

 
Verse 1

         G         C/E                D              C2

Creation brings an offering as autumn leaves turn to gold

              G               C/E

The trees bow down in highest praise

         D                C2

Now made bare before Your throne

            G/B            C2           D          C/E

The western sky's an amber blaze at the end of the day

    G D             D            G

For ev'rything must die to rise again



Verse 2

             G              C/E

The winter's chill a bitter cold

           D                 C2

As sin and shame leave us to fall

               G               C/E

The clouds now full of newborn snow

             D                C2

For grace to come and save us all

           G/B              C2

Within the darkest night of man

               D      C/E

Was found Your saving hand

    G D             D            G

For ev'rything must die to rise again



Chorus 1

       C           G        D

On the third day behold the King

       C               Em7    D

On the third day death has no sting

       C                  G/B       D    G

On the third day we're forgiven and reconciled



Verse 3

             G               C/E

The earth it groans in labor pains

           D                  C2

As flowers stretch to heav'n above

               G                  C/E

Your creatures sing the prophet's song

        D                C2

To be a gift of selfless love

           G/B           C2

The sun is rising in the east

         D              C/E

And Your Spirit is unleashed

    G D             D            G

For ev'rything must die to rise again



Verse 4

          G              C2              D                C2

And so we wait in joyful hope for You to come and take us home

          G/B              C2

And so we join beneath the cross

         D                  C2

In suffering from whence we go

             G                C2           D           C/E

The greatest act of sov'reign grace in the universe displayed

    G D             D            G

For ev'rything must die to rise again



[Chorus 1]



Chorus 2

       C             G        D

On the third day the saints rejoice

       C            Em7      D

On the third day we lift our voice

       C                G/B       D    G

On the third day we're united and glorified

On The Third Day Lyrics:

Verse 1
Creation brings an offering as autumn leaves turn to gold
The trees bow down in highest praise
Now made bare before Your throne
The western sky's an amber blaze at the end of the day
For ev'rything must die to rise again

Verse 2
The winter's chill a bitter cold
As sin and shame leave us to fall
The clouds now full of newborn snow
For grace to come and save us all
Within the darkest night of man
Was found Your saving hand
For ev'rything must die to rise again

Chorus 1
On the third day behold the King
On the third day death has no sting
On the third day we're forgiven and reconciled

Verse 3
The earth it groans in labor pains
As flowers stretch to heav'n above
Your creatures sing the prophet's song
To be a gift of selfless love
The sun is rising in the east
And Your Spirit is unleashed
For ev'rything must die to rise again

Verse 4
And so we wait in joyful hope for You to come and take us home
And so we join beneath the cross
In suffering from whence we go
The greatest act of sov'reign grace in the universe displayed
For ev'rything must die to rise again

[Chorus 1]

Chorus 2
On the third day the saints rejoice
On the third day we lift our voice
On the third day we're united and glorified
