He Grew The Tree

G             C       G            D7
He molded and built a small lonely hill
        C             C          G     Am
That He knew would be called Calvary
        G        C             G         Em
Then He made the seed that would grow to be
A7                A7           D7  D7
Thorns that would make His Son bleed

        G            C             G           G7
Then He made a green stem, gave it leaves and then
        C            C                           G   G
gave it sunshine and rain And sheltered it with moss
C           C         G             Em
He grew the tree that He knew would be
G                D7         G    G
Used to make the old rugged cross

D7                D7   G           Em
Nothing took His life with love He gave it
Am          D7        G            G7
He was crucified on a tree that He created
           C        C       G               C
With great love for man God stayed with His plan
G           Em           C            G
He grew the tree so that we might go free

     G            C               G            D7
With tears in His eyes God looked down through time
         C           C         G    Am
Saw Him spat upon rejected and mocked
      C           C          G           Em
Still He grew the tree that He knew would be
G                D7         G    G
Used to make the old rugged cross

C           C         G             Em
He grew the tree that He knew would be
G                D7         G   Em
Used to make the old rugged cross
