(intro)
Em D/E Em D/E Em
Em D/E Em Em/D
On a gray April morning as the chilling wind blew,
Cmaj7 Am7 B7sus B7/D#
A thousand dark promises were about to come true;
Em D/E Em Em/D
As Satan stood trembling knowing now he had lost,
Cmaj7 Am7 Bsus B7 Em
As the Lamb took His first step on the way to the cross!
Am7 D B7/D# Em D/E Em
This must be the Lamb:
Am7 D B7/D# Em
the fullfillment of all God has spoken!
Am7 D B7/D# Em D/E Em
This must be the Lamb:
Am7 Am7/C Bsus B/D#
not a single bone will be broken!
Am7 Bm7 B7/D# Em D/F# G
Like a sheep to the slaughter so silently still,
Am7 Em
This must be the Lamb!
(verse 2)
Em D/E Em Em/D
They mocked His true calling and laughed at His fate,
Cmaj7 Am7 B7sus B7/D#
So glad to see the Gentle One consumed by their hate,
Em D/E Em Em/D
Unaware of the wind and the darkening sky,
Cmaj7 Am7 Bsus B7 Em
So blind to the fact that it was God limping by!
chorus
(verse3)
Em D/E Em Em/D
The poor women weeping at what seemed a great loss,
Cmaj7 Am7 B7sus B7/D#
Trembling in fear there at the foot of the cross,
Em D/E Em Em/D
Tormented by memories that came like a flood,
Cmaj7 Am7 Bsus B7 Em
Unaware that their pardon must be bought with His blood!
chorus
