From Eternity * capo on the 3rd fret (all chords relative to capo) * ======================================================
(Verse 1)
D A F#m G D Dsus4
From eternity - one with the Father,
D A D G Asus4 A
To eternity - united in love.
Bm A Bdim7 Em
But three hours apart, forsaken, alone,
Bm F#m Gmaj7 F#m
Cursed upon a cross.
Bm A Bdim7 Em
Three hours apart, by heaven unknown,
Bm F#m7 Bm A
Dying for the lost ...
(Chorus)
D A G A D Dsus4
And as you commanded - we remember
D A G A
All you surrendered, with these precious signs:
D A G A D
Your broken body is the bread of life to us,
G Bm Em7 A7 Dsus4 D
The blood that you shed, we taste as wine.
(Verse 2)
D A F#m G D Dsus4
Perfect purity - awesome and holy,
D A D G Asus4 A
Burning purity, untainted by sin.
Bm A Bdim7 Em
But you knew the stab, the stain of our lies,
Bm F#m Gmaj7 F#m
Darkening your heart.
Bm A Bdim7 Em
You knew the stab, the pain of our pride,
Bm F#m7 Bm A
Tearing you apart ...
(Repeat chorus)
(Verse 3)
D A F#m G D Dsus4
Total majesty - sovereign creator,
D A D G Asus4 A
Awesome majesty, sustainer of all.
Bm A Bdim7 Em
But humbling yourself, and knowing the price,
Bm F#m Gmaj7 F#m
You took human form.
Bm A Bdim7 Em
Humbling yourself, you gave up your throne,
Bm F#m7 Bm A
For a crown of thorns ...
(Repeat chorus)
