Before The Hammers Could Ring Lyrics & Chords

By Bobbie Bost

(G)Before the hammers could ring His (D)Blood touched the (A)cross for (G)me

(D)Before the hammers could strike the nails that (G)pinned Him to the (D)tree.

And before the spear ever pierced His side letting blood and water run (A)free.

Before the hammers could ring His (D)blood touched the (A)cross for (D)me.



Chorus

(G)When sin was nailed thunder rolled, the earth shook with (D)fright.

Darkness fell as the Lamb of God held Him (A)tight.

(G)Legions of angels and a host of heaven stood (D)by.

The law was fulfilled and a dark kingdom (A)fled from the (D)light.

(G)Before the hammers could ring His (D)blood touched the (A)cross for (D)me.



Before the hammers could strike the nails a crown of thorns made Him bleed.

And the Stripes on His back left a bloody trail all the way to Calvary.

Before the hammers could ring His Blood touched the cross for me.

Before the hammers could ring His Blood touched the cross for me.
