     D 
The oceans give up 
          G 
All the dead that are in them 
       D         Bm      Em 
The graves open wide to set captives free 
       D                       G 
And those who are roaming the earth 

Rise to meet them 
  D                     Em         D 
Abraham's seed as the sands of the sea 


 D        G 
These are they who have come 
         D 
Out of great tribulation 
           A 
They have washed their robes 
        D 
In the blood of the Lamb 
           G 
They have gone through much sorrow 
       D 
Into great jubilation 
           A                           D 
They're redeemed by the blood of the Lamb 


Verse: 2 
          D 
Like a strong, mighty army 
          G 
Their voices are ringing 
       D 
The great cloud of witnesses 
  Bm              Em 
Sings freedom's song 
         D 
As they enter the country 
   G 
Built by their own Father 
        D 
The promised homeland 
          Em           D 
They've looked for so long 

 
 D        G 
These are they who have come 
         D 
Out of great tribulation 
           A 
They have washed their robes 
        D 
In the blood of the Lamb 
           G 
They have gone through much sorrow 
       D 
Into great jubilation 
           A                           D 
They're redeemed by the blood of the Lamb 


Verse: 3 
              D 
And all the pilgrims and all the strangers 
         G 
Will be no longer strangers 
          D                     Bm 
All the tired and the weary wanderers 
          Em          C  A 
They will wander no more 
     D                        G 
The table is spread for the great celebration 
            D 
And the "Welcome Home" banner 
       A         D 
Flies over the door 


 D        G 
These are they who have come 
         D 
Out of great tribulation 
           A 
They have washed their robes 
        D 
In the blood of the Lamb 
           G 
They have gone through much sorrow 
       D 
Into great jubilation 
           A                           D 
They're redeemed by the blood of the Lamb
