A Little Story

• C

C
There was this big Guy
       C7          F
And He had a great idea.
   C
He built Himself a world
                     G
And He put people on it.

        C
But the people they turned wicked,
C7            F
And they soon forgot
        C
Who had made their very being
                      G
And put them on their planet.

       C
So the God He sent His very own Son,
    C7        F
His only holy Son.
       C
And He sent Him to the world
                           G
'cause something had to be done.
 
C
His son walked around and He told the truth
C7                            F
Like the truth had never been told.
       C
He was kind to the poor,
                 G 
His home was the road.

C
Unlike any other heroes
C7                       F
Of which a song could be sung,
         C
He never did bad to anyone.
                G
He never did no harm.

C 
But there were other people who weren't so nice
C7                           F
And they plotted to take His life
        C
And the Man knew all about it
                   G
But He didn't even hide.

C
And they beat Him and they robbed Him
C7                          F
And they hung Him for bein' good.
         C
And they laughed and made jokes
                        G
While they stood in his blood.

C
But there's a happy ending to the story.
C7                        F
I think you'll be glad to know
        C
He came back to life in glory,
                         G
And up from the grave He arose.

C
So before you turn out your light,
C7                F
Remember this one Man
          C
Who lived comfortably in heaven
                                G
But gave it all up to hang on a cross.

C
Because He hung for you and me
C7                    F
And He came to set us free.
           C
'Cause his Dad had a great idea
                              G  C
About the way things ought to be.
