C                                F            C
There's a story so unkind in the Holy book we find
                                       G7
And it tells how Jesus stood alone one day
      C                                    F                   C
False accused and there condemned yet they found no fault with Him
                     G7             C
The man who wore the scarlet purple robe


[Chorus]

C                                 F               C
Purple robe my Savior wore oh the shame for me he bore
                                    G7
As He stood alone, forsaken on that day
         C                             F                        C
And they placed upon His head piercing thorns and blood stained red
                  G7             C
His raiment was a scarlet purple robe


[Verse]

C                                  F                     C
In the common judgment hall he was mocked and scorned by all
                                   G7
And a tear of sorrow fell upon His cheek
         C                       F                   C
Soldiers of the wicked man smote Him with their evil hand
                     G7             C
The Man who wore the scarlet purple robe


[Chorus]

C                                 F               C
Purple robe my Savior wore oh the shame for me he bore
                                    G7
As He stood alone, forsaken on that day
         C                             F                        C
And they placed upon His head piercing thorns and blood stained red
                  G7             C
His raiment was a scarlet purple robe


[Verse]

C                                  F                      C
Words of truth that day were plain from the lips of Pilate came
                                       G7
In this man I find no reason He should die
        C                      F          C
But the multitudes replied let Him now be crucified
                     G7             C
The man who wore the scarlet purple robe


[Chorus]

C                                 F               C
Purple robe my Savior wore oh the shame for me he bore
                                    G7
As He stood alone, forsaken on that day
         C                             F                        C
And they placed upon His head piercing thorns and blood stained red
                  G7             C
His raiment was a scarlet purple robe

Oh the River Of Jordan is many miles away
                                  G7
And this mighty river I may never see
         C                          F             C
But I'll find myself an alter in an old fashioned church
                G7               C
And my River Of Jordan that will be
