Closer Than You Know

Intro: C  C  C

Verse 1:
             Em
I tempered the storm
            F        C
Though your faith was small
             Em
I prayed while you slept
        F          C
And the night waged war

Verse 2:
               Em
We stood in the fire
       F        C
And we walked on sea
                   Em
And we drank of the wine
         F      C     C  C/E
That was made of Me

Pre-chorus:
F      Am
 Don't
F                  Am
 Turn your eyes from Me
F                 Dm  C      C/E
 For my love won't  be undone
F     Am
 Don't
F                  Am
 Hide your face from Me
F                 Dm   C
 For My light has sure - ly come
      Em           F
Surely come, surely come
               Dm     C
Oooh oooh oooh ooohhh

Verse 3:
             Em
I carried that cross
      F        C
And I felt your pain
             Em
I took up your crown
      F        C
And I wore your shame

Verse 4:
Continues after the ad
                Em
And death was a fire
        F         C
And its teeth were grim
                Em
But I left it behind
           F       C     C  C/E
Along with all your sin

Pre-chorus:
F      Am
 Don't
F             Am
 Turn away from Me
F                  Dm C      C/E
 For my love won't be  undone
F     Am
 Don't
F                  Am
 Hide your face from Me
F                 Dm   C
 For My light has sure - ly come
      Em           F
Surely come, surely come
               Dm
Oooh oooh oooh ooohhh

go
               Dm
And I won't forsake you

 Lift up your eyes and see
G               C/E        F     
 Heaven is closer than you know

 So lift up your voice and sing

And My light has surely come
      Em           F
Surely come, surely come
             Dm        C      Em  F
