[Intro]
Gm  Gm
 
[Verse 1]
       Gm
Moving from the gates of Eden
         Gm       Bb         C
God made garments from the skin
     C
Of a beast that died to show
             Bb                Gm
The cov’ring we would need for sin
 
[Verse 2]
    Gm
Abraham on Mount Moriah
        Gm    Bb     C
With an altar but no lamb
          C
Lifts his knife to offer Isaac
         Bb               Gm
But then God provides the ram
 
[Chorus]
         C                          C
Oh, what love poured out across the ages
       Gm                        Gm
All of heaven’s kindness running red
         F                    C/E
Oh, what mercy there upon the pages
C                  Dsus
All God’s children praise the weaver
Eb     F       Gm
Of the scarlet thread
 
[Verse 3]
        Gm
Crimson stains around the doorway
       Gm      Bb     C
As the angel’s shadow fell
          C
Safe from judgement, death passed over
        Bb          Gm
All the sons of Israel
 
[Verse 4]
        Gm
Rope of red, a sign of promise
       Gm     Bb     C
From a window in the wall
        C
Rahab’s family to be rescued
         Bb            Gm
When old Jericho would fall
 
[Chorus]
         C                          C
Oh, what love poured out across the ages
       Gm                        Gm
All of heaven’s kindness running red
         F                    C/E

[Verse 5]
      Gm
Every priest within the temple
         Gm         Bb        C
Sees the bloodshed, knows the cost
      C
Every lamb on every altar
         Bb            Gm
Pointing us toward the cross
 
[Verse 6]
        Gm
For the cross speaks once forever
        Gm       Bb   C
Once to heal and over throw
      C
Every sin that left us scarlet
        Bb               Gm
So He’d made us white as snow
 
[Chorus]
         C                          C
Oh, what love poured out across the ages
       Gm                        Gm
All of heaven’s kindness running red
