INTRO:

D#m F#/A# B

VERSE 1:
F#          F#/A#                  B2
O what mercy has been granted me

           F#/C#             B/D#
For the filthy rags I've worn

F#               F#/A#            B2
Clothed in sacrifice too great to speak

        F#/C#         B/D#
And of new life reborn

 F#           F#/A#                    B2
Still my darkness veils all the victories

D#m – C#/F – F# F#/A# B
That you've seen me through

 F#/C#      F#/A#             B
The prisons I have counted each

 D#m – C#/F – F# F#/A# B
A wall of sin so high I cannot reach

Continues after the ad
F#/C#         Bb7/D       D#m
Jesus Christ who died for me

F#/A#       B C#           D#m
Gave his life so that I could be free

 F#/A#       B          C#                 F#
He gave his life so that I could be free




INTERLUDE:

VERSE 2:
They come to you weary broken torn
And lay their sorrows at your feet
Parched and hungry for a taste of joy
And from suffering find retreat
But our silence veils all the answers
That they seek from you
Children cry to see your face
Poor men desperate for your arms of grace
Jesus Christ who died for them
By your scars we pray their wounds will mend
By your scars we pray their wounds will mend


INTERLUDE


VERSE 3:
Our God of Grace our deliverer
To you be glory and fame
All our treasures we have counted loss
For to surrender is to gain
Your hope unveils all the answers
and reveals the truth
By the cross you made a way
And you will bring us to your home one day
Jesus Christ for us you died

 F#/A# B C# D#m
And gave the world your love though we denied

 F#/A# B Bb7/D D#m
And gave the world your love though we denied

 F#/A# B C# F#
And gave the world your love though we denied
