Verse 1:
G      Em       Cadd9   Em
God of love You came to earth
          D           Cadd9     G
Born in a manger, the incarnate Word
        Em         Cadd9   Em
Full of grace, and full of truth
               D          Cadd9           G
You healed the leper, You made all things new
D        Em            Cadd9   G
Religion despised Your word of love
  D              Em        Cadd9 G
Condemned You to die in Your innocence
           Em        Cadd9 Em
A crown of thorns and mockery
              D           Cadd9     G
Were Yours my Saviour, my precious King

Interlude:
G Em Cadd9 Em D Cadd9 G

Verse 2:
G            Em        Cadd9        Em
Stained with blood and bruised with pain
            D        Cadd9    G
The Lamb of God on a cross of shame
      Em         Cadd9 Em
Never before and never again
            D          Cadd9    G
Was love so great, was death so grim
D            Em       Cadd9    G
There on the hill You died for me
   D        Em        Cadd9   G
You took my sin, gave me liberty
           Em        Cadd9   Em
I'll never boast but in Your cross
           D           Cadd9    G
And all my gains I now count as loss

Interlude:
G Em Cadd9 Em D Cadd9 G

Verse 3:
G              Em     Cadd9    Em
When sins they rob my heart of joy
          D               Cadd9     G
And condemnation seems to steal even more
       Em      Cadd9    Em
This I recall, You rose again
               D          Cadd9 G
And I rose with You, hallelujah amen
        D       Em       Cadd9  G
So if I live in want, or die in shame
   D       Em         Cadd9  G
To live is You and to die is gain
     Em      Cadd9  Em
I in You and You in me
           D           Cadd9 G
My God, my Brother, my Identity

Verse 4:
       G                Em
Were I tempted with the best of earth
         Cadd9                  Em
All it's pleasures and all it's gold
                        D
And if fame in all it's kingdoms
    Cadd9          G
Was in my hands to hold
                            Em
I'd scorn it all for You've given me
    Cadd9            Em
The treasure of Your Son
                            D
And now I'm richer than the richest
           Cadd9         G
For You've given me Your love
