HE CAME IN LOVE

Intro
G C G D G C G D G

[VERSE 1]
G             D7     G
Pure and holy Son of God
C      G      Am      D
Taking on the form of man
C        G     D7     G
Left the glory of His throne
C       G        D7       G
Came to bring salvation’s plan

[VERSE 2]
Righteous Father, Holy One
Looking down on us in love
Gave to us His only Son
Sent with blessings from above

[CHORUS]
       D               G
But we took Him and we nailed Him
     C             G
to a cross made of wood
       D                  G
And we raised it high and dropped it
       C               G
In the ground where it stood;
        G     D    Em     D      C       G
And the blood that flowed to the earth below
          G 
Bought forgiveness for the world
         D7          G
That had treated Him so

[VERSE 3]
"Peace on earth, good will to men"
At the birth that angels sang
Love and mercy from the throne
Through the earth His message rang.

[BRIDGE]
C          G                D7           G
He came in love to bring us light in our darkness
C          G                D7             G
He came in peace to bring release from our pain
C          G               D7          G
He came in joy to bring us rest in our weariness
C          G                D7      G
He came in love to bring us beauty again.

[CHORUS]
       D               G
But we took Him and we nailed Him
     C             G
to a cross made of wood
       D                  G
And we raised it high and dropped it
       C               G
In the ground where it stood;
        G     D    Em     D      C       G
And the blood that flowed to the earth below
          G 
Bought forgiveness for the world
         D7          G
That had treated Him so

[TAG]
        G     D    Em     D      C       G
And the blood that flowed to the earth below
          G 
Bought forgiveness for the world
         D7          G
That had treated Him so
