[Verse 1]
Em7 C G Em7 C G
On a hill called Calvary, stands an endless mercy tree
Em7 C G Dsus C G
Every broken weary soul, find your rest and be made whole
Em7 C G Bm C
Stripes of blood that stain its frame, shed to wash away our shame
G C G Dsus G
From the scars, pure love released; salvation by the mercy tree
[Verse 2]
Em7 C G Em7 C G
In the sky, between two thieves, hung the blameless Prince of Peace
Em7 C G Dsus C G
Bruised and battered, scarred and scorned, sacred head, pierced by our thorns

"It is finished" was His cry
Bm C
The perfect Lamb was crucified
G C G Dsus G
His sacrifice our victory; our Savior chose the mercy tree
[Verse 3]
Em7 C G
Hope went dark that violent day
Em7 C G
The whole earth quaked at Love's display
Em7 C G Dsus C G
Three days silent in the ground, this body born for Heaven's crown
Em7 C G Bm C
On that bright and glorious day, when Heaven opened up the grave
G C G Dsus G
He's alive and risen indeed! Oh, praise Him for the mercy tree!
[Chorus]
D Em7 C Em7 G
Death has died, love has won; hallelujah, hallelujah!
D C Em7 C D G
Jesus Christ has overcome; He has risen from the dead
[Verse 4]

One day soon we'll see His face; and every tear, He'll wipe away

No more pain or suffering; oh, praise Him for the mercy tree!
