Copyright 1986 by Word Music(a div. of Word, Inc.). All rights reserved. HE IS LORD VERSE 1: G D C G/B Emptied of His glory, God became a man, Am D7 G To walk on earth in ridicule and shame. C B Em Cm6 A Ruler, yet a Servant; a Shepherd, yet a Lamb; G/D D7 G A Man of Sorrows, agony, and pain. VERSE 2: G D C G/B Humbled and re-jected, beaten, and de-spised; Am D7 G Up-on the cross the Son of God was slain. C B Em Cm6 Just like a lamb to slaughter, a sinless sacri-fice; G/D D7 G But, by His death His loss became our gain. VERSE 3: G D C G/B Satan's forces crumbled like a mighty wall; Am D7 G The stone that held Him in was rolled a-side. C B Em Cm6 The Prince of life in glory was lifted over all; G/D D7 G Now earth and heaven echo with the cry. CHORUS 2x: G Am7 D7 G He is Lord, He is Lord! A7 D7 He is risen from the dead and He is Lord! G G7 C Every knee shall bow, every tongue confess G/D D7 G that Jesus Christ is Lord. (REPEAT)Home
