[Intro]
Em Asus2 Am
E Bm A Am Asus2
[Verse 1]
Em D Em
A mural of memories moves by in a blur,
D Am
His prayers all seem unanswered and unheard
Em Am Bm C
His pleading petitions, His loud cries and tears,
Em D Em
A last reprieve will simply not appear
[Chorus]
C D Bm C
So ruthless He loves us, so reckless his embrace,
Am Bm Em
To show relentless kindness to a hardened human race
Asus2 D Bm Am
The joy that was before Him on the Man of Sorrows’ face
C D Em A Am Asus2
And by His blood, He bought a violent grace
[Verse 2]
Em D Em
Most willing of victims, and with His final breath,
D Am
Destroyed the one who holds the power of death
Em Am Bm C
The hate heaped upon Him, scorning all the shame,
Em D Em
But all for love He died and overcame
[Chorus]
C D Bm C
So ruthless He loves us, so reckless his embrace,
Am Bm Em
To show relentless kindness to a hardened human race
Asus2 D Bm Am
The joy that was before Him on the Man of Sorrows’ face
C D Em
And by His blood, He bought a violent grace
[Bridge]
B C
In all of time, no one had ever heard,
D A
And to the world the thought seemed so absurd
B C
Beyond their wildest dreams, no one could ever tell,
D Em E
Of a High Priest who would sacrifice Himself
