Passion Song

	  		
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
