Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

and the darkness crept in overshadowed the sun

we were buried in the sickness our sin had begun

 and we were thirsty and we were tired

but God said "come" and despite our condition

light now shines where the dark had convinced us

 that no man takes and no man receives

He said he'll repay us what we deserve

according to our sin and the wrath that we've earned

 He lifted it and He put it on His Son

So down came love, the right hand of God

the man called Christ and he swallowed it up

that all may taste and see

the Lord is gracious, slow to anger

rich in love

He's good, so good to us

if my righteousness is filthy rags

and Yours is a shield about my chest

and when the righteous cry you hear

and Your voice breaks through the noise and confusion

responding to my lowly position

I hear you and I feel you

and I know that

the Lord is gracious, slow to anger

rich in love

He's good, so good to us
