10 Father Into Your Hands I Commend My Spirit ( Luke 23. 44-49)
(or 4th capo G guitar)
B5
B F#/A#
It was noon
G#m
When darkness came upon the land,
C#m C#m/B F#
And everything was gloomy until three
B F#/A#
Sunlight failed
G#m
The veil was torn in two
E
And all around was eerie,
C#m F#
And our hearts they failed us too
E
As a voice came drifting
C#m F#
Softly moaning like the wind, crying:-
B E/B B E/B B E/B B E/B B E/B B
“Father....... into your hands, I commend my spirit!”
B F#/A#
This he said
G#m
And then we heard him breathe his last,
C#m C#m/B F#
We heard a soldier say this was God’s Son
B F#/A#
We hung our heads,
G#m
And wept aloud with shame
E
So sorry for the slaughter,
C#m F#
And appalled at what we’d done.
E
Then a wind came drifting
C#m F#
Softly moaning like his voice, crying:-
B E/B B E/B B E/B B E/B B E/B B
“Father....... into your hands, I commend my spirit!” REPEAT
