[Verse 1]
C            F            C
One day on a bright April morning
                              G
As the sun stretched over the sky
        C            F            C
Stood a Man with His hands tied behind Him
             G           C
Awaiting His sentence to die
 
 
[Chorus]
    F                             C
The birds hushed their singing at daybreak
                               G
For Christ had His place to fulfill
       C             F          C
From a lovely bright mansion in Heaven
     G                      C
To a cross on a lonely dark hill

[Verse 2]
                   F           C
Just ahead lay the mountain of Calvary
                                     G
Where He must drink from sins bitter cup
          C            F           C
One could hear hammers ring in the stillness
                       G           C
Then the soldiers were lifting Him up
 
 
[Chorus]
    F                             C
The birds hushed their singing at daybreak
                               G
For Christ had His place to fulfill
       C             F          C
From a lovely bright mansion in Heaven
     G                      C
To a cross on a lonely dark hill

[Chorus]
    F                             C
The birds hushed their singing at daybreak
                               G
For Christ had His place to fulfill
       C             F          C
From a lovely bright mansion in Heaven
     G                      C
To a cross on a lonely dark hill
