Intro: Em  C  G (2x) 

verse 1 
      Em          C      G 
On a hill called Calvary 
          Em       C     G 
Stands an endless mercy tree 
       Em       C     G 
Every broken weary soul 
            D                G 
Find your rest and be made whole 
             Em                   G 
Stripes of blood that stain its frame 
         Bm             C 
Shed to wash away our shame 
          Em         C       G 
From the scars pure love released 
           D            G 
Salvation by the mercy tree 

verse 2 
        Em      C         G 
In the spot between two thieves 
           Em         C      G 
Hung the blameless Prince of Peace 
          Em          C          G 
Beaten, battered, scarred, and scorned 
        D                    G 
Sacred head pierced by our thorns 
         Em             G 
It is finished was his cry 
             Bm          C 
The perfect lamb was crucified 
          Em        C   G 
His sacrifice, our victory 
             D              G 
Our Savior chose the mercy tree 

verse 3 
           Em         C      G 
Hope went dark that violent day 
                  Em         C      G 
The whole earth quaked at love's display 
             Em     C      G 
Three days silent in the ground 
      D                       G       
This body born for heaven's crown 
          Em                 G 
On that bright and glorious day 
              Bm            C 
When heaven opened up the grave 
       Em        C     G 
He's alive and risen indeed! 
            D              G 
Praise him for the mercy tree! 

Chorus 
            D            Em 
Death has died, love has won 
     C           D 
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! 
        D             Em 
Jesus Christ has overcome 
         C        D     G 
He has risen from the dead 

verse 4 
         Em          C        G 
One day soon, we'll see his face 
          Em           C     G 
And every tear, he'll wipe away 
         Em        C   G 
No more pain or suffering 
           D              G 
Praise him for the mercy tree 

(Chorus 2x) 

      Em          C   G 
On a hill called Calvary 
           Em       C    G 
Stands an endless mercy tree
