Key: C
Introduction:
C F G7 G
In the twilight, lost and weary once we walked,
A C G
Where promised flowers never bloomed
C F G7 C
Where hearts, found empty, closed their heavy doors
Am Dm C GC
But ever was the nameless search resumed.
F C
For wide before us open stand the gates.
G D C G C
Now he has come to wield the priceless key.
C F G7 C
Around his feet all earth bears fruit of joy
C G Am D G C
And in his love the day sets all men free!
verse 2
C F G7 G
On the shores of day we leave behind the night,
A C G
Abandoned leave there long forgotten dreams
C F G7 C
No more we thirst upon the desert plain,
Am Dm C G C
Nor seek to drink dark waters of the stream.
F C
For wide before us open stand the gates.
G D C G C
Now he has come to wield the priceless key.
C F G7 C
Around his feet all earth bears fruit of joy
C G Am D G C
And in his love the day sets all men free!
