Chords

[Intro] Em C [Verse 1]
        Em
In the days of old the priest would come

        C
With a lifeless sacrifice

           D                                      C    D
While the crowd in anxious silence would wait outside

       Em
As he entered in the temple

           C
They only hoped he would be heard

           D
God would give them a tomorrow

         C              D     Em
And the priest would stay alive
[Refrain 1]
       C                  D
Their only chance, their only hope

      Bm     Em     D
Would he be heard?

     C              D
The only way they might be saved

      Bm     C         D
Would he be heard?
[Verse 2]
        Em
In the fullness of the promised time

     C
The final Priest did come

        D                        C    D
And He offered up a living sacrifice

        Em
And now we, His children, wait for Him

      C
With hope and joyful praise

        D
For we know that God has heard Him

        C         D          Em
For we know that He was raised
[Refrain 2]
     C               D
He offered tearful prayers

And He was heard

He offered up His life

And He was heard

The priest whom God did hear

For the joy that was before Him

    G
He overcame the fear

     C                Dm
For once and all He paid the cost

   G                  Am  G
Enduring all the shame
