Tom: D

D       D       D 
Oh to see the dawn of the darkest day, 
G       D       G D A 
Christ on the road to Calvary. 
D       D       D 
Tried by sinful men, Torn and beaten, then, 
G       D       A 
Nailed to a cross of wood. 
 
Refrão ------------- A  G    A  D 
This, the power of the cross: 
D       G     A D 
Christ became sin for us. 
D       G       G       A 
Took the blame, bore the wrath, 
A      D        G       A       D 
We stand forgiven at the cross.  

D       D       D 
Oh, to see the pain written on Your face,  
G       D       G                D A 
Bearing the awesome weight of sin.  
D       D       D 
Every bitter thought, every evil deed,  
G       D       A 
Crowning Your bloodstained brow.
