CThe teacher of truth told Ftales
Of trouble Ctimes that would begin
And the G7cynical sower sowed
The sorrowful Fseeds of seven Csins
The people placed a Fprice upon
The priCnce of perfect peace
And the G7one who wooed the world was wounded
FLook unto the Ceast
The Cmorning moved in Fmournfully
With Cmany moments marred
By G7brawny beast who beat the beauty
FBound and bent and Cbarred
They laid the lash Fupon him low
His Clips moved not the least
Watch G7him come from where he did go
FLook unto the Ceast
The Cdevil drew his Fdarts
And the dearest Cdove came droppin' down
But the G7spirits slips in soft and sweetly
FUnseen with no Csound
The comforter, the Fcounselor
With Cus till time is ceased
And the G7groom will return for his bride
FLook unto the Ceast

[Verse]

C F

The teacher of truth told tales

Of trouble times that would begin

And the cynical sower sowed

F C

The sorrowful seeds of seven sins

The people placed a price upon

The prince of perfect peace

And the one who wooed the world was wounded

F C

Look unto the east

C F

The morning moved in mournfully

With many moments marred

By brawny beast who beat the beauty

F C

Bound and bent and barred

They laid the lash upon him low

His lips moved not the least

Watch him come from where he did go

F C

Look unto the east

C F

The devil drew his darts

And the dearest dove came droppin' down

But the spirits slips in soft and sweetly

F C

Unseen with no sound

The comforter, the counselor

With us till time is ceased

And the groom will return for his bride

F C

Look unto the east
