xAlright, here's another one that we do that I thought you might enjoy. It's a
powerful hymn, so have some fun with it and sing your heart out.
We play with a Capo 2, but it can be done without it. So wherever you feel
comfortable, go for it. (All chords are relative to the capo)
[Verse 1]
D Em7 D/F# G
How deep the fathers love for us
D/F# Bm7 A
How vast beyond all mea-sure
D Em7 D/F# G
That He should give his only son
D A D
To make a wretch His trea-sure
D Em7 D/F# G
How great the pain of searing loss
D/F# Bm7 A
The Father turns His face away
D Em7 D/F# G
As wounds which mar the Chosen One
D A D
Bring many son's to glory
G D G
[Verse 2]
D Em7 D/F# G
Behold the Man upon the cross
D/F# Bm7 A
My sin upon His shoulder
D Em7 D/F# G
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice
D A D
Call out among the scoffers
D Em7 D/F# G
It was my sin that held Him there
D/F# Bm7 A
Until it was accom-plished
D Em7 D/F# G
His dying breath has brought me life
D A D
I know that it is finished
G D G
[Verse 3]
D Em7 D/F# G
I will not boast in anything
D/F# Bm7 A
No gifts no power no wisdom
D Em7 D/F# G
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
D A D
His death and resurrection
D Em7 D/F# G
Why should I from His reward
D/F# Bm7 A
I cannot give an answer
D Em7 D/F# G
But this I know with all my heart
D A D
His wounds have paid my ransom
Repeat the last four lines twice slowing down as you go.
Thanks and enjoy!
