The First Time
Mercyme

Intro:
C#C# AbAb F#F# F#F#

Verse 1:
C#C#
Day after day
AbAb
I try to explain You
F#F#
Like I can contain You

In so many words
C#C#
You are the ocean
AbAb
And I'm on the shore line
F#F#
Thinking I know You

Like You could be learned

Pre-Chorus:
F#F#   AbAb
 It's so amazing
F#F#   AbAb     F#F#
 That You'd ever save me

Chorus:
C#C#
I thought I knew You're face
AbAb
I thought I tasted grace
F#F#
But I have never felt anything close to this
C#C#
Just when I'd seen it all
AbAb
New mercy breaks the door
F#F#
With my eyes opened wide
C#C#
It feels like the first time, first time
AbAb                  F#F#
 It feels like the first time, first time

Verse 2:
C#C#
After all of my searching
AbAb
All of my reaching
F#F#
I'm left with nothing

Nothing of worth
C#C#
You treasure the broken
AbAb
Over and over
F#F#
Give me a hope that can never be earned

PRE-CHORUS

CHORUS

Bridge:
C#C#
And You're beauty, no eye has seen
AbAb
Your majesty, overwhelm me
F#F#                 C#C#
Your love for me is healing, You're God

Chorus:

C#C#
I thought I knew You're face
AbAb
I thought I tasted grace
F#F#
But I have never felt anything close to this
C#C#
Just when I'd seen it all
AbAb
New mercy breaks the door
F#F#
With my eyes opened wide
C#C#
I feel alive for the first time, first time
AbAb                  F#F#
 It feels like the first time, first time
C#C#                  AbAb
I can see for the first time, first time
  F#F#           C#C#
