C  F  C  F  C
CJesus was a man who was not like Fany oCther

Oh the Cpeople had never heard words like these

They Cled Him before the courts Fand the house of CPilate 
In a trial they mocked and condemned this righteous G7man 
Pilate Clistened to the crowd and he knew they lied
but wFhen he heard the people cry "CrucAmify" 
He Ctried but he couldn't G- wash the blood from his Fguilty ChanCds C  
CJesus died on a lonely hill they called MoFunt CalCvary 
They laid Him in a tomb and a stone sealed Him inGside

Fshocked and excited when they reached His Amgrave 
they Cran back to town G- and everybody heard them cCry C  C  C
