Version 1 Version 2Alright, here's another one that we do that I thought you might enjoy. It's a powerful hymn, so have some fun with it and sing your heart out. We play with a Capo 2, but it can be done without it. So wherever you feel comfortable, go for it. (All chords are relative to the capo) [Verse 1] D Em7 D/F# G How deep the fathers love for us D/F# Bm7 A How vast beyond all mea-sure D Em7 D/F# G That He should give his only son D A D To make a wretch His trea-sure D Em7 D/F# G How great the pain of searing loss D/F# Bm7 A The Father turns His face away D Em7 D/F# G As wounds which mar the Chosen One D A D Bring many son's to glory G D G [Verse 2] D Em7 D/F# G Behold the Man upon the cross D/F# Bm7 A My sin upon His shoulder D Em7 D/F# G Ashamed I hear my mocking voice D A D Call out among the scoffers D Em7 D/F# G It was my sin that held Him there D/F# Bm7 A Until it was accom-plished D Em7 D/F# G His dying breath has brought me life D A D I know that it is finished G D G [Verse 3] D Em7 D/F# G I will not boast in anything D/F# Bm7 A No gifts no power no wisdom D Em7 D/F# G But I will boast in Jesus Christ D A D His death and resurrection D Em7 D/F# G Why should I gain from His reward? D/F# Bm7 A I cannot give an answer D Em7 D/F# G But this I know with all my heart D A D His wounds have paid my ransom Repeat the last four lines twice slowing down as you go. Thanks and enjoy!
