C                   F      C
Christ the true and better Adam
C              G      C
Son of God and Son of man

Who, when tempted in the garden
C               G      C
Never yielded, never sinned
C                F     C
He who makes the many righteous
          Am      F     G
Brings us back to life again
C            F         C
Dying, He reversed the curse, then
        Am           G        C
Rising, crushed the serpent’s head

Who would climb the fearful mountain
C              G      C
There to offer up his life
C                 F      C
Laid with faith upon the altar
         Am      F    G
Father’s joy and only son
C         F          C
There salvation was provided
        Am       G         C
Oh what full and boundless love

C                G      C
Called to lead a people home
C                F        C
Standing bold to earthly powers
C                 G      C
God’s great glory to be known
C                       F       C
With his arms stretched wide to heaven
        Am     F       G
See the waters part in two
C               F     C
See the veil is torn forever
              Am       G        C
Cleansed with blood we pass now through

Christ the true and better David
C               G      C
Lowly shepherd, mighty King
C               F      C
He the champion in the battle
C                  G       C
Where, o death, is now thy sting?
C               F        C
In our place He bled and conquered
          Am      F     G
Crown Him Lord of majesty
C                F       C
His shall be the throne forever
         Am       G      C
We shall e’er His people be
