Bm G A Em Bm7 D2 E7
verse 1
Bm G A
I find it difficult to place myself
Bm G A
at the foot of the cross
Bm G Em
When I truly stop to think about
G D
the bloody mess of human flesh
G
My heart just stops
Bm G A
Betrayed by those who claimed to know him well
Bm G A
Not showing any sense of loss
Bm G Em
Would I have partnered in the cowardice?
G D A
And run away afraid I might assume the cost
Chorus 1
D Em
What a gracious and loving God
G A
who would give his life for me
D Em
Even though he knows me to the depths of my soul
G A
He has set me free
Bm
So I will take this bread
Bm7
and I will take this blood
D2 E7 G
Even though I could never deserve this love
Em D G
What a gracious and loving God
A Bm
who would give his life for me
verse 2
Bm G A
It must have been amazing scenery
Bm G A
to see the ever-darkening skies
Bm G Em
But I can scarcely wrap my mind around
G Bm A
The moment when they drove the spear into his side
Bm G A
The mess of blood and water pouring down
Bm G A
The haunted look in peopleâ??s eyes
Bm G Em
Would they ever even realize
G D A
the one they turned away had come to save their lives?
Chorus 1
BRIDGE
Em G
There is not a single sound that I could utter
Em Bm
That would be adequate at best
Em G
To bring relief from the emotion deep inside me
Em G A
The words I wish I could express
Chorus 2
D Em
What a gracious and loving God
G A
who would give his life for me
D Em
Even though he knows me to the depths of my soul
G A
He has set me free
Bm
So I will take this bread
Bm7
and I will take this blood
D G A
Even though I could never deserve this love
Em D G
What a gracious and loving God
Em D G
What a gracious and loving God
Em D G
What a gracious, what a loving God
A Bm
who would give his life for me
