[Verse 1:]
G
Your grace is still a mystery
A
That you would save a wretch like me
G D
No love goes deeper
G A
No song sounds sweeter
G
And we confess our wandering eyes
A
Have turned to sin a thousand times
G D
We sing together
G A
Your love tastes better
[Pre-Chorus 1:]
Bm A
Your death, our bread and wine
G D
Your word, our life divine
Bm A G
So when you’re not the center of our minds
A
Take us back
[Chorus:]
D A
We will cling to the cross despised and rugged
D A
We will stare at the name inscribed above it
Bm
This is Christ the king of the Jews
G
He’s the one, who sinners call beloved
D A
Then we run to the tomb where sin was laid
D A
Where the stone on our heart was rolled away
A
Oh the blessed joy that meets us here
G D
When we see the savior’s face
Em
Once again we stand amazed
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2:]
D
And when the world tempts us to fall
A
And tells us you’re not worth it all
G D
We might be shaken
G A
But we’re not forsaken
D
And when the sorrows like pillars roll
A
And drown the music in our souls
G D
What hope relieves us?
G A
To see you Jesus
[Pre-Chorus 2:]
Bm A
Your hands that heal the blind
G D
That placed the stars in line
Bm A G
Are reaching out into this heart of mine
Bm A
Your voice that calmed the sea
G D
Oh, that told the world to be
Bm A G
Is whispering a peace inside of me
A
It takes me back
[Chorus:]
D A
We will cling to the cross despised and rugged
D A
We will stare at the name inscribed above it
Bm
This is Christ the king of the Jews
G
He’s the one, who sinners call beloved
D A
Then we run to the tomb where sin was laid
D A
Where the stone on our heart was rolled away
A
Oh the blessed joy that meets us here
G D
When we see the savior’s face
Em
Once again we stand amazed
[Bridge:]
D A
Amazing grace
Bm G
You saved our wretched souls
D A
Upon these broken instruments
Bm G
You wrote a song that won’t grow old
D A
And amazing love
Bm G
You set our hearts in tune
D A Bm/G
And so we sing only for you
[x3]
[Pre-Chorus 3:]
Bm A
Your blood has paid the debt
G D
Your life has conquered death
Bm A G
So when we feel enslaved to our regret
Bm A
Your blood has paid the debt
G D
Oh, your life has conquered death
Bm A G
So when the devil tempts us to forget
D
Would you take us back?
[Chorus:]
D A
We will cling to the cross despised and rugged
D A
We will stare at the name inscribed above it
Bm
This is Christ the king of the Jews
G
He’s the one, who sinners call beloved
D A
Then we run to the tomb where sin was laid
D A
Where the stone on our heart was rolled away
A
Oh the blessed joy that meets us here
G D
When we see the savior’s face
Em
Once again we stand amazed
