Lyrics and Chords

Did you hear about the man    From the album, ‘Stir into Flame’

A simple statement in song about ‘the man’. Chris

Intro:

3Am                                Dm                      Am

 Did you hear about the man who died on Calvary?

Am                                   Dm                       Am

Did you hear about the man who died for love of me?

              F                       G            C                   Am

He was nailed onto the tree of life for you and me.

             Dm                       G                          C              Am

Did you hear about the man who died on Calvary?

And the crown of thorns - it cut his head for love of me.

And he suffered hunger, thirst and pain just for me.

Then his Father took the pain, and he died and rose again,

It was Jesus Christ the man, who died on Calvary.

So let’s give our hearts to Jesus who died for us,

And let’s worship him with prayer; everyone of us.

For he gives his love to all, who are ready for his call.

So let us give our hearts to Jesus who died for us.

So let us give our hearts to Jesus who died for us.

( I was reminded recently that a youth group called 'Destination Known' 

from Bond Memorial church wrote this second verse for us,  when we were invited to their church. 

The minister at the time there was Revd Alan Stears)
