Chords

   Em                                 D
Surrounded with shouts the cruel accusations

  CM7                              D
Dragged to the court no hope of salvation

Em                                    D
All hope was lost for those who had caught me

CM7                             D
Knew what I was, They knew all about me

    Em
I thought it seemed strange as we entered in

      CM7
They stopped a young rabbi to ask His opinion

Em
Caught in the act, their reason for hating

    CM7
My body could feel the stones that were waiting

    Am
My judge a man from Galilee

        F
In His eyes so gentle I could see

   Dm                         B
A father and a brother and a son

 E                                             A
Just as I saw Him, the hope I had lost became born again

   B
I was not hopeless

  E
Though I'd been lost

       G#m                        A
Now, I felt I was found when He looked at me

     B              Em
With His forgiving eyes

   Em                                   D
The crowd gathered round, so angry and violent

    CM7                              D
But He stood beside me, peaceful and silent

 Em                                       D
Then with a word, with one question, He showed them

      CM7                                   D
That they too were guilty and could not condemn

      Em                                   D
The next thing I knew, He asked me, "Where are they?"

    CM7                                D
And I looked around the courtyard was empty

     Em                                        D
The stones scattered 'round, the warm morning sunlight

 CM7                               D
He'd made the darkness perfectly light

        Am
In this new light now I understood

         F
He would not condemn me though He could

    Dm                                B
For He would be condemned someday for me

 E                                             A
Just as I saw Him, the hope I had lost became born again

   B
I was not hopeless

  E
Though I'd been lost

       G#m                        A
Now, I felt I was found when He looked at me

     B              E G#m A B E G#m A B
With His forgiving eyes

          Em
Forgiving eyes
