Verse 1:
          A
I cast my mind to Calvary
            E                 F#m
Where Jesus bled and died for me
          D                      A/C#
I see His wounds, His hands, His feet

My Saviour on that cursed tree

         A                          
His body bound and drenched in tears
              E                F#m
They laid Him down in Joseph's tomb
             D               A/C#
The entrance sealed by heavy stone
        E              A     C#m  D
Messiah still and all alone

Then on the third, at break of dawn
           E           F#m
The Son of heaven rose again
           D                    A/C#          
O trampled death, where is your sting
           E                   A     
The angels roar for Christ the King

           A
He shall return in robes of white
            E                    F#m
The blazing sun shall pierce the night
           D              A/C#
And I will rise among the saints
             E               A
My gaze transfixed on Jesus' face
