Softly and tenderly song is sung over the lyrics below
Key D
[Chorus]
G D Bm A A7
Now Lord, what can I do for you?
D
Softly
{Recited]
D
In a land where there's freedom to worship
G D
It was there that beauty creates that I should be born
E7 A A7
You gave me the breath of life and let me see the light of dawn
D
And you gave me a father and a mother
Who have stood in the breach for me
G
Through all of my shortcomings
D
You did this when you might have turned away
G
From my heart's door
D
To cause your spirit to strife no more
[Chorus]
G D Bm A A7
Now Lord, what can I do for you?
{Recited]
D
Through the weary swift years of childhood
G D
Till I was a man I rejected your call
Knowing that you gave your only begotten son
E7 A
To plea and to die on the cross at calvary
That I might have eternal life
D
And since that day long ago when
G
With tender mercy you saved my soul
D
I've never called out your name except
When I was in trouble sorrow and pain
D A
Yet you have showered me with blessings
D
Even though I drifted away and grew cold
[Chorus]
G D Bm A A7
Now Lord, what can I do for you?
{Recited]
D
It's true, I've been wild, pleasured bent
G
Unwilling to surrender all
D
And now, my life is mostly spent
E7
Yet tonight you restored my soul
A
You gave me a loving wife and the family of my own
D
And I brought them shame
My sins have caused them grief and pain I'm told
G D
But they loved and believed in me when
G
I know to them it seemed in vain
D
Yes, you are a merciful God to take me back again
[Chorus]
G D A D
Now Lord, what can I do for you?
