She Came With The Spices chords

[VERSE 1]

[G]She came with the spices
[C]To thy tomb O [D]Lord,
[D7]Knowing not that Thou
[G]Above the earth had [Em]soared.
She [G]came void of all hope;
She [Am]came expecting death;
For[Am]getting the Life-[G]Giver
Who [D]is the living [G]breath.

[VERSE 2]
In [G]trials and tribulations,
Do [C]we not do the [D]same:
[D7]Looking at our errors,
[G]Despairing in our [Em]blame?
How [G]often do we wallow,
A[Am]bandoning all hope –
As [Am]though on our [G]own –
With [D]burden we could [G]cope.

[VERSE 3]
If [G]Peter lost all hope when
Our [C]Lord exposed his [D]sin,
[D7]Luke would not record
The [G]three thousand he would [Em]win.
[G]If Paul considered nothing
But [Am]his murderous past,
Would [Am]his inspired [G]letters
To [D]this generation [G]last?

[VERSE 4]
[G]Moses’ life was evil,
Every [C]sin he did com[D]mit,
[D7]But from this desert bandit,
A [G]shining lamp was [Em]lit.
If [G]Mary, Egypt’s harlot,
Had [Am]not tried to win his grace,
[Am]Would she now be in [G]heaven –
Would [D]she have won the [G]race?

[VERSE 5]
Our [G]Lord set an example,
Com[C]pelled, we do the [D]same:
[D7]Fight, strive, persevere and
On [G]us will be no [Em]blame.
If [G]our loving Saviour
Had [Am]not endured all pain,
Would [Am]Redemption and Sal[G]vation
[D]Ever be our [G]gain?

[VERSE 6]
I [G]come now with hope
To [C]Thy Tomb O [D]Lord,
[D7]Knowing that in Truth,
[G]Above the earth Thou [Em]soared,
I [G]come now with joy,
I [Am]come expecting life;
[Am]Knowing that through [G]Thee
I [D]can endure all [C]strife.
