Verse 1
G 
A 
D 
Last night I dreamed
G 
I took a walk
D 
A 
Up Calvary's lonely hill,
D 
The things I saw
G 
With my own eyes
E 
A 
Could not have been more real.
D 
I saw upon three crosses

Three men in agony;

Two, cried out for mercy,
A 
And a third man, He looked at me.

Verse 3

It just broke my heart in two!

And it seemed I could hear him say

"Son, I'm doing this for you."

Verse 4
A 
I knelt beneath the third man's cross,
D 
And slowly bowed my head,
I reached out to touch his feet,
G 
And it stained my hand's with red.

Verse 5
D 
And when I heard him cry in pain,
A 
I raised my eyes to see;
The blood spilled from the third
man's side
D 
And some of it spilled on me.
G 
The third man wore

Verse 6

a crown of thorns,

Spikes held him to the tree,

And I heard him say, "Oh God, My God,

Why hast thou forsaken me?"

Verse 7
D 
And there within the mighty crowd,
G 
The ones who mocked Him cried
Gm 
G 
"King, save Thyself if thou
art King!"
D 
And then the third man died.

Verse 8
A 
Suddenly, I heard the thunder roll,
I saw the lightening pierce
D 
the sky.
G 
Then third man was still hanging there,
Em 
And I began to cry.
E 
I  saw the boulders fall, And heard the breaking of

Verse 9

the ground.

And then I awoke,

And though I dreamed;

Verse 10
I touched my cheek and found,
D 
My eyes were wet where
G 
I  had cried.
D 
A 
A dream, I wished I knew
D 
G 
I can still hear the third man say,
D 
A 
"I'm doing this for you."..
