John Mark Mcmillan - Death In His Grave

death in his grave
jm mcmillan

capo 2 C G Am – F

electric guitar E – bow with acoustic 4

xoh , oh oh 4

xverse : C G Am – F
though the earth cried out for blood
satisfied her hunger was
her billows calmed on raging seas
for the souls on men she craved
sun and moon from balcony
turned their head in disbelief
their precious love would taste the sting , disfigured and disdained

C G F C
on friday a thief , on sunday a king
C G F C
laid down in grief , but awoke with keys
Am G F C
to hell on that day , the first born of the slain
Am G F C G Am – F
the man jesus christ laid death in his grave

choir sings – oh , oh oh 4

xso three days in darkness slept
the morning sun of righteousness
but rose to shame the throes of death , and overturn his rule
now daughters and the sons of men
would pay not their dues again
the debt of blood they owed was rent when the day rolled a new

chorus huge on the F of death

F Am G F
he has cheated hell , and seated us above the fall
F Am G F
in desperate places , he paid our wages , one time once and for all

chorus soft with just keys and guitar
