Chords for God, Job and Satan - Don Francisco

[D] _ _ _ [Bm] _ [D] _ [G] _ _ [A] _
[D] _ _ _ Now a long time ago [Bm] lived a man named Job, [D] Who was [G] reverent and righteous, [D] turning [A] from sin.
[D] He had [A] many children, [Bm] cattle [F#m] and servants.
[G] Indeed he was richer [A] than all [D] other men.
_ _ Now there came a time [Bm] when the angels of God [G] went [D] to present themselves there [Em] at his throne.
[D] The devil was also [Bm] among them that day, [G] and he stood before God [A] just like one [D] of his own. _
_ [Bm] Have you considered [F#m] Job, said the Lord, [G] a man who is blameless [D] in word [A] and in deed?
[Bm] None on the earth [F#m] can be like unto him.
[G] Whatever is righteous, [A] he's anxious [D] to heed.
_ _ [Bm] Well of course the man's faithful [F#m] and obedient to you.
[G] He's just playing the game [D] because you do [A] what you do.
[Bm] You've put up a hedge [F#m] round his house and his lands.
[G] You've been blessing his flocks [Em] in every work [D] of his hands.
[Bm] He's like all the rest [F#m] of this rabble today.
[G] He gives [D] loyal service to the one who [A] will pay.
[Bm] Take away all [F#m] of those things that you gave, [G] and he'll curse you till the day [A] that he goes
[Bm] to his grave.
_ [F#m] _ [D] _
[G] _ _ [A] _ [D] Then the devil went out, [Bm] took all of Job's riches, [G] and he killed [D] all his children in
an instant [A] of time.
[D] Job tore his robes, [Bm] but he worshipped the Lord.
_ [G] And Job did not sin [A] or curse God [D] for this crime.
_ _ _ _ [Bm] _ [G] _ _ [D] _
_ [A] _ [D] _ _ [Bm] _ [A] _ [G] _ _
[A] _ [D] _ _ _ Now again came a time [Bm] when the angels of God [G] went to [D] present themselves there at [A] his throne.
[D] The devil was also [Bm] among them that day, [G] and he stood before God [A] just like one [D] of his own. _ _
[Bm] Have you considered [F#m] Job, said the Lord, [G] even though without reason [D] you've brought him [A] so low?
[Bm] Still he is faithful, [F#m] he's righteous and blameless.
[G] For all of your evil [A] there's nothing [D] to show.
_ _ [Bm] Well of course he's been quiet [F#m] and he's holding his tongue.
[G] A man would give all he owns [D] to escape being [Bm] hung.
But if you'll [F#m] just let me lay his body [G] to waste, the veneer will [Em] come off and [A] he'll spit in [Bm] your face.
[F#m] _ _ [G] _ [A] _
_ [D] So Satan went out [Bm] and he struck Job with swords [G] from his head to [D] his feet.
He had boils [D] on his skin until even his wife shrieked [Bm] at Job and said,
Why [G] don't you just give [A] it up?
Go [Bm] on, curse God and [F#m] die!
_ _ [G] _ _ [A] _
[D] _ _ _ But Job sat in ashes, [Bm] alone with his pain, [G] and wished for the day when [A] he'd go to the dead.
And [D] though covered in misery, [Bm] he still held his peace, _ [G] and committed no sin [A] to [D] the words that he said.
