Verse 1:
G
Gentle friend
Gsus
You knew my name
Em7 D C9
Yet with Your hand You calmed the storm and healed the lame
G2
As You spoke
D
People came
Em7 D C9
And as the crowds would gather 'round they called out
D C D Em7 C9 D
Holy One, are You the Holy One, who was sent by God to show the way
I wasn't there
The night they came
Those who saw and feared the miracles you made
You took the nails
You bore the pain
And as they hung You on the cross and mocked you
Holy One, if You're the Holy One let your God come save You from the
grave
[Refrão]C Em D G
I just heard the news today
C Em D G
I just came to find you but they said You'd gone away
C D G D Em C D
I just wanted to hear You say that you had to go
C D G
But that You'd be back again
Verse 2:
Early morn
Break of day
Came in time to find the rock You rolled away
I found Your robe
An empty grave
And as I fell upon the ground I cried out
Holy One, You are the Holy One, and You came and gave Your life away
Holy One, You are the Holy One and You came and gave Your life away
I am the life, I am alive, I came to show the way
