(D)         G           D/F#
There is an everlasting kindness
    Em7   G/A   D
You lavished on us
         G           D/F#
When the radiance of heaven
        Em7        A7sus
came to rescue the lost;

You called the sheep without a shepherd
   Em7         G/A D
To leave their dis-tress

For your streams of forgiveness
        Em7      Em/A G
And the shade of Your rest.

You reached out Your hand
       G           D/F#

        Em7            A7sus
And the dead breathed again;
          G                D/F#
You saw behind the eyes of sorrow
    Em7       G/A D
And shared in our tears,
          G           D/F#
Heard the sigh of the weary,
        Em7      Em/A D
Let the children draw near.

D          G                  D/F#
We stood beneath the cross of Calvary

    Em7    G/A    D
And gazed on Your face

For surely You have borne our suffering
    Em7     G/A D
And carried our grief

           Em7     Em7/A D
And showed grace to the  thief.
