[Intro]
C G/B Am F G C
[Verse 1]
G/B Am
The devil laughed and said, "I’ve won
F G C
God has lost his only son
G/B Am
The brightest star no longer shines
F G C
Finally this world is mine"
G Am
Then he gathered all his demons near
F G Am
He said, "We have conquered love with fear"
[Chorus]
D F#m G
Meanwhile, back at the cross, all is not lost
A7 D
Forgiveness is bought with each drop of his blood
F#m G
That falls to the ground, mercy abounds

As mother Mary’s tears fall down
D A
To see her precious son pay the cost
[Verse 2]
C G/B Am
The Devil said, "We’ll use their pride
F G C
We’ll attack them from inside
G/B Am
Fill their hearts with vanity
F G C
'Til their differences are all they see

Black and white, rich and poor
F G Am
To justify their holy war"
[Chorus]
D F#m G
Meanwhile, back at the cross, all is not lost
A7 D
Forgiveness is bought with each drop of his blood

That falls to the ground, mercy abounds

As mother Mary’s tears fall down
D A F
To see her precious son pay the cost
[Bridge]
C
Just take a look around
Turn on the evening news
Dm Bb
The Devil says, "No way in Hell
F
Am I gonna lose
C
Hate is everywhere
Bb
Love cannot be found
It took me two thousand years
A7
But it’s almost over now"
[Chorus]
