Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 part2 of chorus:
Though  the Earth Cried out  for blood
Satisfied  her hunger was
 Her billows  calmed on raging  seas
 for the souls  on men she craved
Sun  and moon from balcony
Turned  their head in disbelief
 Their precious  Love would taste the sting
 disfigured  and disdained
 On Friday  a thief
 On Sunday  a King
Laid  down in grief
 But awoke  with keys
 Of Hell  on that day
 The first born  of the slain
 The Man  Jesus Christ
   Turn-Around (play verse chords)
 Laid death in his grave
So  three days in darkness slept
 The Morning  Sun of righteousness
 But rose  to shame the throes  of death
 And over  turn his rule
 Now daughters  and the sons  of men
 Would pay  not their dues  again
 The debt  of blood they owed  was rent
 When the day  rolled a new
 REPEAT CHORUS
He  has cheated
Hell  and seated
Us  above the fall
 In desperate  places
 He paid  our wages
One  time once and for all
