[F] [C]
Last night I dreamed [F] I took a walk [C] up Calvary's [G] lonely hill.
The [C] things I saw [F] with my own eyes [D] could not have been [G] more real.
[C]
I saw upon three [F] crosses, three men in [C] agony, two cried out for mercy,
[G] and the third man had looked at me, [C] and oh, the hurt in this man's [F] eyes had just broke my heart in two.
[D] And it seemed I could hear him say, [G] Son, I'm doing this for you.
[C] I knelt beneath the third man's cross [F] and slowly bowed my head.
[C] I reached out to touch his feet, [G] and it stained my hands with red.
[C] And when I heard him cry in pain, [F] I raised my eyes to see.
[C] The blood spilled from [G] the third man's side, [C] and some of it spilled on me.
The third man wore a crown of [F] thorns, spikes held him to the tree.
[C] And I heard him say, Oh God, my [G] God, why hast thou forsaken me?
[C] And there within the mighty crowd, [F] the ones who mocked him cried,
[D] King, save thyself if thou art king.
[G] And then the third man died.
[C]
Suddenly I heard [F] the thunder roll.
I saw lightning pierce the sky.
[C]
The third man was still hanging there, [G]
and I began to cry.
[C]
I saw the boulders fall [F]
and heard the breaking of the ground.
[C]
Then I awoke, [Em] [G] and though I [C] dreamed, I touched my cheek and found
My eyes were wet.
[F] Where I had cried, [C] the dream I wished [G] I knew.
[C] I still can hear [F] the third man say, [C] I'm doing [G] this [F] for you.
