Key: E
Verse 1:
          E
I cast my mind to Calvary
            B             C#m
Where Jesus bled and died for me
          A                      E/G#
I see His wounds, His hands, His feet
           B              E        G#m  A
My Saviour on that cursed tree


Verse 2:
         E
His body bound and drenched in tears
              B          C#m
They laid Him down in Jo-seph's tomb
             A               E/G#
The entrance sealed by heavy stone
        B               E     G#m  A
Messiah still and all a-lone


Chorus:
  E                      A        E
O praise the Name of the Lord our God
  C#m                  B
O praise His Name for-ever more
    E/G#                   A         C#m
For endless days, we will sing Your praise
   A        B        E      G#m   A
Oh Lord, oh Lord our God

(Ending)
   A        B        E
Oh Lord ,oh Lord our God


Verse 3:
            E
Then on the third, at break of dawn
           B           C#m
The Son of heaven rose a-gain
           A                    E/G#
O trampled death, where is your sting
           B                   E
The angels roar for Christ the King


Verse 4:
            E
He shall re-turn in robes of white
            B                    C#m
The blazing sun shall pierce the   night
           A              E/G#
And I will rise among the saints
             B                E
My gaze trans-fixed on Jesus' face
