D                      A
Though the Earth cried out for blood
Bm            G
Satisfied her hunger was.
    D                 A
Her billows calmed on raging seas
        Bm               G
For the souls of men she craved.
D                 A
Sun and moon from balcony
Bm                   G
Turned their head in disbelief.
      D                   A
Their precious Love would taste the sting,

Disfigured and disdained.


CHORUS:
   D        A
On Friday a thief,
   G        D
On Sunday a King
D            A
Laid down in grief
    G          D
But awoke with keys.

The first born of the slain

The Man Jesus Christ
     G            D
Laid death in his grave.

So three days in darkness slept
    Bm             G
The Morning Sun of righteousness
    D                 A
But rose to shame the throes of death
    Bm            G
And over turn his rule
    D                 A
Now daughters and the sons of men
      Bm            G
Would pay not their dues again
    D                  A
The debt of blood they owed was rent
         Bm           G
When the day rolled a new


REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE:
G
He has cheated
Bm
Hell and seated
A            G
Us above the fall
   G
In desperate places
   Bm
He paid our wages
A                     G
One time once and for all
