Verse 1:
          D
I cast my mind to Calvary

Where Jesus bled and died for me
          G                      D/F#
I see His wounds, His hands, His feet
           A              D        F#m  G
My Saviour on that cursed tree


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


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

(Ending)
   G        A        D
Oh Lord ,oh Lord our God


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


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