Tom: G

  G              C    G      Em             C      D
Up to the hill of Calvary, my Savior went courageously
   G/B               C    D   Em       C             D
and there He bled and died for me, Hallelujah for the Cross
   G               C         G          Em             C        D
And on that day the world was changed, a final, perfect Lamb was slain
   G/B              C   D  Em          C     D       G
Let earth and heaven now proclaim, Hallelujah for the Cross

[Chorus]
    C             D      G                Em             D
Hallelujah for the war He fought, love has won, death has lost
    C             D        Em           C     D       G
Hallelujah for the souls He bought, Hallelujah for the Cross

[Verse 2]
    G                    C     G        Em                 C        D
What good I’ve done could never save, my debt too great for deeds to pay
   G/B             C    D  Em       C             D
But God, my Savior, made a way, Hallelujah for the Cross
 G                C        G          Em                 C      D
A slave to sin, my life was bound, but all my chains fell to the ground
    G/B               C   D   Em         C     D       G
When Jesus’ blood came flowing down, Hallelujah for the Cross

[Chorus]
    C             D      G                Em             D
Hallelujah for the war He fought, love has won, death has lost
    C             D        Em           C     D       G
Hallelujah for the souls He bought, Hallelujah for the Cross

   G                 C     G            Em              C         D
And when I breathe my final breath, I’ll have no need to fear that rest
    G/B                C D  Em          C     D       G
This hope will guide me into death, Hallelujah for the Cross

[Chorus]
    C             D      G                Em             D
Hallelujah for the war He fought, love has won, death has lost

Hallelujah for the souls He bought, Hallelujah for the Cross
