Now He's Our Father

[Primera Parte]

 Am
He once was a peach picker and he 
toiled in the sun
    C
He reaped the orchard on his own 
until the day was done
     Dm
His hands were hard and calloused 
cause he didn't have a choice
    E                              
He served so many non-believers 
                Am
till he heard the voice

Now he's our shepherd and we're his
   C
 flock
              G                    
Now he's our captain and our ship's
           C
 about to dock
              F                    
Now he's our keeper, to keep us 
         Am
safe from wrath
              G                    
Now he's our father, he's gonna 
                C
lead us down that path

   Am
He once became a beggar when the 
wealthy had no work

      C
He'd sit down out in the snowfall 
till his toes and fingers hurt
 Dm
Every snowflake that fell on him 
felt like a devil's kiss
    E                           
He suffered countless hardships, 
                   Am
until he felt the bliss

     Am
They once locked him in prison, 
though his soul was free from sin
     C
They fed him almost nothing till his
 face was cold and thin
     Dm
They slandered him with every crime 
there was within their laws
   E                               
He had to face a thousand liars 
               Am
till he knew his cause
