THE WAY HE CAME
Mark Harris

Dm C
JUST TO THINK SUCH ROYALTY WOULD COME THE WAY HE CAME
Bb A
IN A DUSTY LITTLE TOWN,
Dm C
BORN IN SUCH HUMILITY, U PON A BED OF HAY;
Bb C
WILLINGLY HE LAY HIS GLORY DOWN.

Dm C
WHO WOULD THINK THIS LITTLE CHILD WOULD BE THE PROMISED ONE?
Bb A
WOULD MESSIAH REALLY COME THIS WAY?
Dm C
CERTAINLY THIS WAS NO BIRTHPLACE FOR THE SON OF GOD.
Bb C
ISN'T IT AMAZING HOW HE CAME?

ISN'T IS A - MA - ZING, THE WAY HE CAME?
Bb Gm C
NO CROWN, NO THRONE, NO BIG PA RADE.
F Am Dm Am
THERE WERE NO FANFARES PLAYED, NO JUBILANT DIS PLAY.
Bb C Bb Modulate: B7
ISN'T IT A MAZING HOW HE CAME?

Dm C
CAN'T BELIEVE THAT I WOULD BE THE REASON WHY HE CAME.
Bb A
CAN'T BELIEVE HE LEFT HIS MIGHTY THRONE.
Dm C
HE BECAME A PAUPER SO THAT I COULD BE A KING --
Bb C
HE DE NIED HIMSELF TO MAKE MY HEART HIS HOME.
