Long Live The King

INTRO:
[E] [G#m7] [B]

VERSE:
There in cr[E]own of thorn an[G#m7]d thistle
The [B]King of Jews was found
On a cro[E]ss, bloodied an[G#m7]d broken
Crimson [B]river flowing down
As darkness fe[E]ll upon G[G#m7]olgotha
Tortured [B]body wrapped in shroud
Our Mess[F#]iah laid be[B/F#]neath [F#]the [E]ground[E]

VERSE 2:
Every c[E]urse upon Hi[G#m7]s shoulders
With our [B]sin He was adorned
Perfect la[E]mb led to th[G#m7]e slaughter
As a r[B]ansom for our souls
One last ac[E]t and it wa[G#m7]s finished
Pow’r of [B]sin and veil were torn

On this cross was our victory won
By His[F#] love, He woul[B/F#]d o-ver[F#]-co[B]me

CHORUS:
Long live th[F#m7]e King
The [E]wrath of God and man now sa[B]tisfied
[B]   Long live the [F#m7]King
[E]Once and once for all He paid [B]the price
That none migh[F#]t die
Now e[C#m7]very sin and [G#m7]sickness bows [F#]its knee
And [E]I can’t help bu[B]t lift my hands a[F#]nd sing
Long live the[E] King[G#m7][B]

VERSE 3:
Then withi[E]n the bowels [G#m7]of Hades
A [B]trembling was made
The very br[E]eath of God d[G#m7]escended
Which death [B]itself could not enslave
The exo[A]dus of ancient sinners
Marched in [E/G#]triumphal par[B]ade
Finally [G#m7]hell had been[F#] ove[E]rcom[B/D#]e
By Jesus [E]Christ, the [F#sus]Anointe[F#]d O[Bsus]ne[B]

CHORUS 2:
Long live th[F#m7]e King
The [E]Son of God is crowned with ma[B]ny crowns
[B]   Long live the[F#m7] King
[E]Death and darkness fear Him and b[B]ow down
And lost are [F#]found
The [C#m7]souls of every [G#m7]sinner now [F#]redeemed
And [E]I can’t help but [B]lift my hands a[F#]nd sing
Long live th[G6]e King[A2]
Long live the[B] King[B]
Long live th[G6]e King[A2]
Long live the[B] King[B]

VERSE 4:
In the ea[E]rly morning[G#m7] hours
God’s [B]Spirit filled the grave
Breathing l[E]ife into th[G#m7]e body
Of the [B]Lamb who had been slain
Resurr[A]ecting like a Lion
As the st[E/G#]one was rolled [B]away
Jesus [G#m7]Christ now [F#sus]glori-fi[E]ed[B/D#]
Yes, our R[E]edeeme[F#sus]r, He’s [F#]aliv[Bsus]e[B]

CHORUS 3:
Long live the [F#m7]King
Em[E]manuel ascends to take H[B]is throne
[B]   Long live th[F#m7]e King
The [E]train of His robe glides across [B]the floor
Creation [F#]roars
A [C#m7]billion ancient [G#m7]stars bow down the[F#]ir knees
And [E]I can’t help bu[B]t lift my hands a[F#]nd sing
Long live the[G6] King[A2]
Long live th[B]e King[B]
Long live the[G6] King[A2]
Long live th[B]e King[B]
