Note: Travis picking being what it is, you can do anything you want. I do something like
this,
alternating with modified versions as I feel like it. Often would leave out either the 2

************************************
[Verse 1]
 
Gadd9 Am7 Csus2 Gsus2 Em Dadd9
How deep the Father's love for us, how vast beyond all measure
Gadd9 Am7 Csus2 Gsus4 Dadd9 G
That he should give his only son, to make a wretch his treasure
Am7 Csus4 Gsus Em Dadd9
How great the pain of searing loss, the Father turned his face away
Gadd9 Am7 Csus4 Gsus4 Dadd9 G
As wounds which mar the chosen one, bring many sons to glory
 
[Verse 2]
 
Gadd9 Am7 Csus2 Gsus2 Em Dadd9
Behold the man upon a cross, my sin upon his shoulders
Gadd9 Am7 Csus2 Gsus4 Dadd9 G
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice call out among the scoffers
Am7 Csus4 Gsus Em Dadd9
It was my sin that held him there until it was accomplished
Gadd9 Am7 Csus4 Gsus4 Dadd9 G
His dying breath has brought me life; I know that it is finished
 
[Verse 3]
 
Gadd9 Am7 Csus2 Gsus2 Em Dadd9
I will not boast in anything: no gifts, no power, no wisdom
Gadd9 Am7 Csus2 Gsus4 Dadd9 G
But I will boast in Jesus Christ; his death and resurrection
Am7 Csus4 Gsus Em Dadd9
Why should I gain from his reward? I cannot give an answer
Gadd9 Am7 Csus4 Gsus4 Dadd9 G
But this I know with all my heart: his wounds have paid my ransom
