The Messiah

 
Dm 
Take Him down, take Him down 
C 
Move Him gently, hold His head 
Bb 
Wipe His face, clean the blood off

Lay Him here, wrap Him in this cloth 
 

 
Dm 
Lift Him up, lift Him up 
C 
Move Him easy, careful now 
          Bb F A 
He's the Messiah 
 

 
Dm 
Tears are filling, eyes of sorrow 
C 
Hands are touching, no one's speaking 
Bb 
His eyes are empty, skin's so white 
A 
His body's cold, it has no life 
 

 
          Bb F A 
He's the Messiah

He's the Messiah 
 

 
Bb      F                  C 
Go (go) into the world and tell 
                   Dm 
All of creation he lives 
Bb                        C 
He lives in the hearts of men 
          Bb       F                 C 
He said, "Go (go) into the world and tell 
                   Dm 
All of creation he lives 
Bb                        C 
He lives in the hearts of men"

Dry your eyes, hold each other

Lift your thoughts, we are brothers

He's the Messiah 
 

 
Dm                                      C 
Don't be afraid, He has risen, He's not here 

Why are you trembling with fear? 
           Bb 
Just as He told you, just as He said 
               A 
They could not stop Him, He is not dead!
