[Bb] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ His [C] impeccable life was followed by a [F] decisive death [Cm] as He [D] went to Calvary [D] to endure [Gm] inexplicable and [Bb] incomparable suffering.
[C] _ But the veil of [F] revelation is [Fm] drawn back and we're [Bb] told by Paul that [Eb] something was going [Cm] on in the [Bb] darkness of that [F] awful hour.
[Bb] And the Bible said [F] that He was [Bb] destroying _ principalities [Eb] and powers and making a shrine [C] that openly [C] triumphed [F] over them.
And [Fm] when He had done it [D] in the mystery of His cross, He [Gm] said, it is finished.
[Bb] _ _
[C] Every time an Israelite [F] laid his hands [Fm] on a lamb and [Dm] transmitted his sins, that [Eb] that lamb may die [Cm] in his place,
[Bb] that at best [F] was a credit note [Bb] to be redeemed by [F] the most precious [Bb] blood of our [Bb] Lord Jesus Christ.
[Eb] And they were waiting for the [C] time when their credit notes would [F] be redeemed, [Fm] and now this is the [D] time.
[Gb] And so He comes [Gm] down from His cross and He confronts [C] His satanic majesty and He [F] says, I'll take [Eb] those [Bb] keys.
Satan handed Him [Eb] the key.
_ [Cm] Then He [F] turned to the gate of paradise and He [Bb] opened it and He [F] said, come on, [Bb] let's go.
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ They [G] started up the steps of ascension [Cm] and up and up and up they went [Eb] until they came in sight of the [Ab] ramparts of glory.
And then this great crowd of Old Testament redeemed who were moving paradise into [C] better quarters cried out, _
[Db] lift up your heads, O ye gates, and [Ab] be lifted up, O [Db] ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.
But it's not [Eb] that easy for angelic protectors [Bb] hurled back their talons over the ramparts of glory.
And they say, who is this [C] King of glory?
They said, let's tell Him.
He is the Lord, [F] strong and mighty, the Lord [F] mighty in battle. _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ He [F] is the one who has [G] just come [C] freshly from the battlefields of Golgotha, where [Am] single-handedly He dealt [F] a death blow [G] to all of [C] Satan's plans and purposes.
He is the Lord of hosts, mighty [F] in battle.
Now will you lift up your heads, O gates, [Bb] and lift them up, O ancient [F] doors, that the King of glory may come in.
[Bb] And again, _ unsatisfied, they reply, who is this King [Cm] of glory?
And they cry back, [G] He is the Lord of hosts.
[C] He is the King of glory.
[Eb] He is the one who is in charge [Ab] of all the angelic hosts.
But not only that, He is the King now of a multitude which no man [Db] can number.
He is God's dedicated [Ab] authority.
He is [Db] the one who is to bring to God the fruit of His purposes.
[Eb] He is the King of glory.
Now swing back [Bb] those gates and [Eb] let the King of glory come in.
And the gates swing back and He [C] enters in, steps up to the Father's throne, presents the [F] tokens of His redemption.
And the Father said, sit down, son, [D] at my right hand, and reign until I am enemies of [G] thee, thy king. _ _
