Cowboy Copas- Legend Of The Robin's Red Breast

[Verse 1]
G C G
Oh, have you heard this story it happened long ago
C G A7 D7
When Christ our blessed Savior was here on earth below
G C G
An echo through the ages from distant Calvary
C G D7 G
I'll tell it to you simply as it was told to me

[Chorus 1]
C G D7 G
It breathes the blessed teaching of God's own holy word
C G D7 G
A lesson taught in meekness by a lowly little bird

[Verse 2]
C G
When Jesus hung in sorrow our debt of shame to pay
C G A7 D7
No one was there to comfort or wipe His tears away
G C G
A little bird flew near Him in sober coat of brown
C G D7 G
And gazed in tender pity then slowly fluttered down

[Verse 3]
C G
With gentle wings it fanned Him to cool His aching head
C G A7 D7
And hovered near His bosom all stained with deepest red
G C G
At last when all was ended as if to morn his loss
C G
It rose with blood stained feathers and
D7 G
circled around the cross

[Verse 4]
C G D7 G
It breathes the blessed teaching of God's own holy word
C G D7 G
A lesson taught in meekness by a lowly little bird

[Verse 5]
C G
It flew away in sadness and to this day tis said
C G A7 D7
It wears upon its bosom that stain of crimson red
G C G
When I shall cross the valley and go to seek my rest
C G D7 G
May I wear like the robin God's sign upon my breast

[Chorus 2]
C G D7 G
It breathes the blessed teaching of God's own holy word
C G D7 G
A lesson taught in meekness by a lowly little bird
