GAD
She's crying in the desert
GABm
She's lost in her despair
GAD
She thinks nobody loves her
GA
Hagar thinks nobody's there
N.C.
But God says
[Chorus 1]
DF#mGA
I will be a ring of fire around her
DF#mGA
And I will be the glory in her midst
GA
And the power of my presence
BmD/F#
Will bring her to her knees
GA
And I will lift her up again
BmA
For I'm the God who sees
G
I'm the God who sees
[Verse 2]
GAD
Then He speaks in gentle whispers
GABm
And He softly calls her name
G
She feels His arms enfold her
AD
As He holds her
GA
And she'll never be the same
EmA/C#
'Cause I'm the God who never changes
BmD/F#
And My promises are true
EmA/C#
And when this world deserts you
BmA
This is what I'll do
Narration 2:
And there is another woman named Ruth
She was from the land of Moab
And she was met with grief and heartache
She was a widow and she lived with her mother-in-law, who was also a widow
And now it was time to move on
But Ruth had never been to Bethlehem
She had never tasted of the House of Bread
But now she had heard an inner invitation to come and taste and see
And so she vowed herself to her mother-in-law
And she said where you go I will go
Where you lie I will lie
Where you die I will die
And she begins a journey to the Promised Land
[Verse 3]
GAD
She's traveling through the desert
GABm
And she's leaving her despair
GABm
She's hoping for a future
GA
Praying God will lead her there
N.C.
And He says
[Chorus 2]
DF#mGA
I will put a ring around you finger
DF#mGA
And I will bless a child within your womb
GA
And the Savior will be born through you
BmD/F#
To free the world from sin
GA
And He'll make all things new for you
BmA
And love you back to life again, again
Narration 2:
And then from Ruth who gave birth to a son
Obed who gave birth to a son
Jesse who gave birth to a son
Named David
Now the same, once shepherd boy
Mighty warrior, anointed king is alone
Terrified in the darkness
[Verse 4]
GAD
He's hiding in the desert
GABm
He's battling despair
GAD
David thinks his life is over, it's over
GA
And God, He doesn't care
N.C.
But God says
[Chorus 3]
DF#mGA
I will be the Rock of your salvation
DF#mGA
I'll hold you up by the strength of My right hand
GA
And the power of My Spirit
BmD/F#
Will free you from all fear
GA
In the hour of your deepest need
BmA
You'll find that I am near
B (move to E major)
I am here
[Chorus 4]
EG#mAB
And I will be a ring of fire around you
EG#mAB
And I will be the glory in your midst
AB
And the power of My presence
C#mB
Will bring you to your knees
AB
Then I will lift you up again
C#mB
For I'm the God who sees
Narration 3
And then from the line of David
Finally, Jesus the Messiah
The Anointed One, Yeshua, the Christ
Born in the same House of Bread to be the Bread of Life
In the town of Bethlehem
And He would grow
And He would be called the Son of God
He would be called Emmanuel, God With Us
And He would heal, and He would reveal
And then He had an encounter with a woman
Named Mary of Magdalen who was plagued by demons
Tormented by evil spirits, and Jesus set her free
And Mary followed Him, she listened at His feet
She served Him, and she loved Him
Oh how she loved Him
But then she watched as they nailed Him to the cross
And as they placed His body in the tomb
In that moment her hope died, it died
[Verse 5]
ABE
She's crying in the garden
ABC#m
She's broken in despair
ABC#m
She's searching for her Savior
F#mB
But His body isn't there
Then He says, Mary
[Chorus 5]
EG#mAB
Glory, glory, glory, Hallelujah
EG#mAB
I will be the glory in Your midst
AB
And every knee will bow to Me
C#mB
And every tongue confess
AB
Yes all the world will worship Me
C#m B (move to F major)
In all My Holiness
[Chorus 6]
FAmBbC
I will be a ring of fire around you
FAmBbC
And I will be the glory in your midst
BbC
And the power of My presence
DmC
Will bring you to your knees
BbC
And I will lift you up again
DmC
For I'm the God who sees, who sees
(from here onwards Bb C Dm each line)
I'm the God who sees
Oh I'm the God who sees, I see you
I'm the God who sees you in your wilderness
Sees you in your brokenness
When you're feeling lonely, I'm the God who sees
In the desert places, in your empty spaces
I'm the God who sees
I'm nearer than you dare believe, Here in the very air you breathe
BbCF
I'm the God who sees
N.C.
You
