Jesus Was An Only Son

	  		INTRO: D  A  G  D  G  A  D 

     D     D/F#    G   D 
Well Jesus was an only son 
                       G 
As he walked up Calvry Hill 
           D     D/F#     G        D 
His mother Mary walking beside Him 
       G          A          D 
In the path where His blood spilled 
D     D/F#    G   D 
Jesus was an only son 
                     G 
In the hills of Nazareth 
          D           D/F#       G      D 
As He lay reading the Psalms of David 
     G       A       D 
Well at His mother's feet 

         D     D/F#           G          D 
Mother prayed sleep tight my child sleep well 
                    G 
For I'll be at Your side 
        D         D/F#          G       D 
And no shadow, no darkness, no tolling bell 
      G           A            D 
Shall pierce your dreams this night 


INTRO 

       D      D/F#    G      D 
In the garden at Gethsemane 
                                  G 
He prayed for the life He'd never live 
   D              D/F#     G         D 
He beseeched His heavenily Father to remove 
    G          A           D 
The cup of death from His lips 
          D         D/F#      G           D 
There's a loss that can never be replaced 
                                   G 
A destination that can never be reached 
  D                  D/F#           G       D     
A light you'll never find in another's face 
            G           A      D 
A sea whose distance cannot be breached 


INTRO 

     D     D/F#         G           D 
Well Jesus kissed His mother's hands 
                                G 
And whispered Mother still your tears 
    D            D/F#        G         D 
For remember the soul of the universe 
         G         A       D 
Willed a world and it appeared
