[G] [D] [G]
There's a story so unkind in [C] the holy book we [G] find,
And it tells how Jesus stood alone [D] one day, False [G] accused and there condemned,
Yet they [C] found no fault [G] in him, The man that wore [D] the scarlet purple [G] robe.
Purple robe my Savior wore, All [C] the shame for me [G] he bore,
As he stood alone forsaken on [D] that day.
And [G] they placed upon his head,
[C] Piercing thorns of [G] bloodstained red, His reign it was [D] a scarlet purple [G] robe.
[D] [G]
In a common judgment hall, He [C] was mocked and scorned [G] by all,
As a tear of sorrow fell upon [D] his face.
Soldiers [G] of the wicked band,
Smote [C] him with their evil [G] hands, The man that wore [D] the scarlet purple [G] robe.
[C] [G]
Purple robe my Savior wore, All [C] the shame for me [G] he bore,
As he stood alone forsaken on [D] that day.
And [G] they placed upon his head,
[C] Piercing thorns of [G] bloodstained red, His reign it was [D] a scarlet purple [G] robe.
[D] [G]
The words of truth that day were plain, From the [C] lips of Pilate [G] came,
In this a man I find no reason he [D] should die.
[Am] But [G] the multitude still cried,
Let [C] him now be [G] crucified, The man that wore [D] the scarlet purple [G] [C] robe.
[G]
Purple robe my Savior wore, [D] All [C] the shame for me [G] he bore,
As he stood alone forsaken on [D] that day.
And [G] they placed upon his head,
[C] Piercing thorns of [G] bloodstained red, His reign it was [D] a scarlet purple [G] robe.
Yes, Jesus wore [D] that scarlet purple [C] robe.
