[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
AmMidnight leaned on Pharaoh's land, ash and wind at its command.
GDust hung still in desert air, judgement walking everywhere.
AmNo rage uncontrolled, no rebel cry, but heaven's verdict passing by.
G Am AmA messenger beneath decree sent in sovereign clarity.
[Verse 2]
AmDoor by door and breath by breath he moved with measured step of death
GNot cruel, not wild, not uncontained, but justice answering what was named.
AmWalls of cedar, gates of gold, firstborn sons in linen rolls.
GPalace high and stable floor, none could shut the silent door.
[Pre-chorus]
Dm FA whisper through the narrow street, a shadow falling at each feet.
Am GThe air itself began to strain as mercy waited, marked by stain.
[Chorus 1]
AmOh,God pass over me.
FSee the blood and set me free.
C GNot by strength or what I am, but by the blood of the lamb.
Am FOh,God let mercy stand marked and red on wood and land.
C G Am Am AmWhen the light moves through the land, hide me in the land
[Verse 3]
AmThen he saw splendor frame crimson sign without a name.
GBlood brush thick on lintel wide, running down the wooden side.
AmNo sword was raised. No hand was stayed. No bargain struck. No plea was made.
GHe only bowed to what was there, the lamb had marked that dwelling fair
[Pre-chprus]
Dm FWhere wrath was owed and debt was due, another stood in offered view.
Am G DmIn justice sharp as desert winds, passed over blood and entered in. oh oh
[Chorus 2]
F G AmPassed over blood and entered, passed over the blood of the lamb
F G C Pass by blood on the door, passed over not spared by our hands,
G AmBut by mercy written red on wood and sand.
F CPass over. Pass over me. Pass over because of the lamb.
G Am Am Am AmHe passed over
[Verse 4]
AmThe river kept its silent flow, the desert wind moved soft and low,
GBut every house without the sign felt the weight of holy line.
AmNot accident, not chaos, blind, but judgment shaped by God's design.
G Am AmThe angel moved as he was sent by righteous will and covenant.
[Bridge]
Am FThe lamb was slain before the quiet blood declared who would not die.
C GA substitute in silently a life for life eternally.
Am FAnd centuries would carry still that crimson thread on Calvar's hill
C GWhere once again on wooden frame the greater lamb would bear the name.
[Chorus 3]
AmOh,God pass over me.
FSee the blood and set me free.
C GNot by strength or what I am, but by the blood of the lamb.
AmPass over because of the lamb
F CPass over by blood on the door passed over.
G AmNot wrath in our stead, but justice turned aside where mercy passed over us.
F CPass over, pass over me, God set us free
G Am F COh God pass over me, let your mercy be my plea.
G Am Am Am C AmForever more, forever I Am held in the blood of the lamb.
