Thief - Third Day
-------------------------
Cm Gm
I am a thief, I am a murderer
F Cm
Walking up this lonely hill
Cm Gm
What have I done? I don't remember
F Cm
No one knows just how I feel
g Bb Cm
And I know that my time is coming soon.
Cm Gm
It's been so long. Oh, such a long time
F Cm
Since I've lived with peace and rest
Cm Gm
Now I am here, my destination
F Gm
Guess things work for the best.
g Bb Cm
And I know that my time is coming soon.
(Guitar, Bass, Drums)
Cm Gm
Who is this man? This man beside me
F Cm
They call the King of the Jews
Cm Gm
They don't believe that he's that He's the Messiah
F Cm
But, somehow I know it's true.
g
And they laugh at Him in mockery,
Bb Cm
And beat him till He bleeds
g
They nail Him to the rugged cross,
Bb F Cm
And raise Him, they raise him up next to me
Cm Gm
My time has come, I'm slowly fading
F Cm
I deserve what I recieve
Cm Gm
Jesus when You are in Your kingdom
F Cm
Could You please remember me
g
And He looks at me still holding on
Bb Cm
The tears fall from His eyes
g
He says I tell the truth
Bb F Cm
Today, you will live with Me in paradise
g Bb Cm
And I know that my time is coming soon
g Bb Cm
And I know that my time is coming soon
g Bb Cm
And I know that paradise, paradise is coming soon.

| This song means a lot to me because I can sort of look at it as being aligorical to everyday Christian lifestyle even though it's from the point of veiw of the guy dying next to Jesus on a cross. I think that we're all thief's and murderers if we don't accept Jesus Christ, or we might as well be since sin is sin. We can't remember all the bad things we've done and it's been a really really hard life. Then somebody tells us about the power of Jesus and while the world tells us "no worship money, worship power, worship sex" or what have you, we choose him and even though we've commited some great sin he still forgives us due to his undying love. Praise Him! | |
