D
The oceans give up
          G
All the dead that are in them
       D         Bm      Em
The graves open wide to set captives free
       D                       G
And those who are roaming the earth

Rise to meet them
  D                     Em         D
Abraham's seed as the sands of the sea

 
[Chorus]
 D        G
These are they who have come
         D
Out of great tribulation
           A
They have washed their robes
        D
In the blood of the Lamb
           G
They have gone through much sorrow
       D
Into great jubilation
           A                           D
They're redeemed by the blood of the Lamb


[Verse 2]
          D
Like a strong, mighty army
          G
Their voices are ringing
       D
The great cloud of witnesses
  Bm              Em
Sings freedom's song
         D
As they enter the country
   G
Built by their own Father
        D
The promised homeland
          Em           D
They've looked for so long


[Chorus]
 D        G
These are they who have come
         D
Out of great tribulation
           A
They have washed their robes
        D
In the blood of the Lamb
           G
They have gone through much sorrow
       D
Into great jubilation
           A                           D
They're redeemed by the blood of the Lamb


[Verse 3]
              D
And all the pilgrims and all the strangers
         G
Will be no longer strangers
          D                     Bm
All the tired and the weary wanderers
          Em          C  A
They will wander no more
     D                        G
The table is spread for the great celebration
            D
And the "Welcome Home" banner
       A         D
Flies over the door


[Chorus]
 D        G
These are they who have come
         D
Out of great tribulation
           A
They have washed their robes
        D
In the blood of the Lamb
           G
They have gone through much sorrow
       D
Into great jubilation
           A                           D
They're redeemed by the blood of the Lamb
