He Grew The Tree

Tom : G
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
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

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