Em                            D
Mother Mary cried as she held heaven her arms
        C                              B
For the shadow of the scar she saw was clear
       Em                      D
As her own bewildered baby lay weeping for the world
      C                                        B
Whose frightened tears would free us all from fear

     C         D                  Em
The marks of death that God chose never to erase
    C           D            Em
The wounds of love's eternal war
           C       D                       Em
When the kingdom comes with its perfected sons
           C     D      Em

Em                               D
For a time He sought to tell the world He was the Way
     C                           B
That God the father had a human heart
         Em                          D
With His own holy hands He sought to touch and heal their scars
         C                                 B
But they chose to tear those gentle hands apart

C                 Em
What was there to wipe away the tears
C                 Em
Firm the holy eyes of God
      C       D                Em
As He looked upon His one and only Son
                            C        B
Who never sinned, nor lied, yet was crucified

     C         D                  Em
The marks of death that God chose never to erase
     C         D             Em
The wounds of love's eternal war
           C       D                       Em
When the kingdom comes with its perfected sons

    Em                           D
And after they had slain Him and laid Him in the grave
        C                               B
And the ones He loved had fled into the dark
Em                                 D
Then His love and power raised Him God won the victory
         C                          B
But they only recognized Him by the scars

C             D                    Em
The marks of death that God chose never to erase
