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


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


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

(Ending)
   F        G        C
Oh Lord ,oh Lord our God


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


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