Intro: Em C Em C
G Em
In a garden of thorns My Rose of Sharon
C D
{Leaves as she is a cover of the moonlight}
G Em
And the angels wrap her in their feathered arms
C D
But they cannot conceal her from the darkest night
Am D
You did not say a word, and they accused you
Am D
You did not fight back, when the whole world used you
G Bm
When hate was a king, Your love never diminished
B7 Em
You stood meek as a lamb there without blemish
C D
And they laughed when you cried out, "It is finished!"
Em
But you lay down, you lay down
C
And I step upon your back
Em
Up high above, above the fence
C Bm G Em
I see all the way to Glory land
G Em
In a garden of thorns, My Rose of Sharon
C D
Rises up and clings to an old rugged tower
G Em
And tho' the angels offer her a thousand tears
C D
Still she wilts in the cold flame of her darkest hour
Am D
And I lied when I said "I never knew you"
Am D
And you did not fight back when I scarred and bruised you
G Bm
When hate was a king, Your love never diminished
B7 Em
You stood meek as a lamb there, without blemish
C
And we laughed when you cried out
D
How we laughed when you cried out "It is ... finished"
