Chorus:
When the God-man passes by
The blind will see and the dead will rise
Redeemed will dance and broken wings take flight
D#m B F#
When the God-man passes by
D#m
I was a hollow man
B F#
My treachery despised and rightly so
D#m
And even though my chains were gone
B F#
I'm still a slave and reaping what I've sown
D#m B
Call it desperation, I just had to see His face
F# C#
So like a child, I climbed a sycamore tree
B C# D#m
When the God-man called my name
C# F#
I knew I'd never be the same
Chorus:
B A F#
'Cause when the God-man passes by
B
The blind will see and the dead will rise
C# B A F#
Redeemed will dance and broken wings take flight
D#m B F#
When the God-man passes by
I was a runaway
A gypsy chasing shadows in the night
A prisoner of secrets
'Till religion dragged my shame into light
All my darkness was revealed
Just when I thought my fate was sealed
My accusers dropped the stones and walked away
'Cause when the God-Man cleansed my name
I knew I'd never be the same
Chorus:
'Cause when the God-Man passes by
The blind will see and the dead will rise
Redeemed will dance and broken wings take flight
When the God-Man passes by
D#m B F#
You can come just as you are
D#m B F#
Let Him have your broken heart
B E B
You have never run too far
D#m B F#
There is freedom in His scars
F# B F#
You can come just as you are
D#m B F#
Let Him have your broken heart
B E B
You have never run too far
D#m B F#
There is freedom in His scars
Chorus:
'Cause when the God-Man (God-Man), passes by
The blind will see and the dead will rise
Redeemed will dance and broken wings take flight
When the God-Man, passes by
When the God-Man passes by
