✝ Verse 1:
(D MajorD)     G+G      D/F#D/F#
There is an everlasting kindness
  E minor 7Em7  G/AG/A  D MajorD
You lavished on us
     G+G      D/F#D/F#
When the radiance of heaven
    E minor 7Em7    A7sus
came to rescue the lost;
        G+G        D/F#D/F#
You called the sheep without a shepherd
  E minor 7Em7     G/AG/A D MajorD
To leave their dis-tress
     G+G       D/F#D/F#
For your streams of forgiveness
    E minor 7Em7   Em/A G+G
And the shade of Your rest.

You reached out Your hand

And the dead breathed again;
     G+G        D/F#D/F#
You saw behind the eyes of sorrow

And shared in our tears,

Heard the sigh of the weary,
    E minor 7Em7   Em/A D MajorD
Let the children draw near.
