verse 1
C F C
I was with him when he rode into town
F C G
And crowds gathered round him like a king
C F C
Their smiling faces, joined a sea of branches waving
F C G
Thou they were masquerading in the end
F C G
And my heart rose in my throat
Am G
When I heard them sing
F C F C
Hosanna, in the highest
F G C
Oooh Oooooh O Oh
verse 2
We went upstairs, broke the bread and drank the wine
From the only living vine that we would taste.
And I watch them take him up the mountainside
Where he was crucified though innocent.
And they mocked him ,and cursed him with their mouths
And told him to come down if he was God"
Chorus 2
And my heart broke in my chest
When I heard him say
Forgive them, it is finished
Oooh Oooooh O Oh
BRIDGE
F C G
I remember in the garden when he sweat like drops of blood
F C G
And how he begged the father to let him pass the cup
F C G
I can still feel the anguish when they pierced him in the side
F C G F
And how the ground beneath us shook upon the very moment that he died
G F G C
Oooh Ooh Oh Oh Oh
verse 3
Three days later we found an empty grave
and the stone was rolled away where he had been
Tears of joy streamed down my face
When the angel said
Oh fear not, he is risen
Oh fear not, he is risen
F G Am G/B F G C
Oooh Ooh Ooh Oooh Oh Oh Oooh
