[Verse]
C F
The teacher of truth told tales
C
Of trouble times that would begin
G7
And the cynical sower sowed
F C
The sorrowful seeds of seven sins
F
The people placed a price upon
C
The prince of perfect peace
G7
And the one who wooed the world was wounded
F C
Look unto the east
C F
The morning moved in mournfully
C
With many moments marred
G7
By brawny beast who beat the beauty
F C
Bound and bent and barred
F
They laid the lash upon him low
C
His lips moved not the least
G7
Watch him come from where he did go
F C
Look unto the east
C F
The devil drew his darts
C
And the dearest dove came droppin' down
G7
But the spirits slips in soft and sweetly
F C
Unseen with no sound
F
The comforter, the counselor
C
With us till time is ceased
G7
And the groom will return for his bride
F C
Look unto the east
