C G Am
He comes as a darkened knight Upon the raging storm
C G Am
And as an angel of love he reaps the harvest corn
F C Dm
He comes as a leveller to make one and all the same
F C Dm
His song on the western wind to deliver us from pain
F G
Take his hand
Em Am
For only he'll lead you on to the promised land
F Em Am
He is the only true friend of the poor
F G Em Am
Can you not see that only he can ever set you free
F Em Am
He is the only true friend of the poor
C G Am
And all the kings and the queens and the generals dread the gaze of his eyes
C G Am
But to the sick and the cold and the starving he's a blessing in disguise
F C Dm
For his sweet kiss brings release and they shall suffer no more
F C Dm
So they don't fear when he comes a-knock-knock-knocking on the door
