Verse 1:

Am          C/E       F     C
Approach my soul, the mercy seat
       F    C      F        C
Where Holy One and helpless meet
Am         C/E       F       C
There fall before my Judges? feet
F           C      F    C     G/B
Thy promise is my only plea, O God 


Verse 2:

Am            C/E       F        C
Send wings to lift the clutch of sin
        F     C           F    C
You who dwell between the cherubim
Am          C/E       F      C
From war without and fear within
F           C               F                     C
Relieve the grief from the shoulders of crumbling men

Chorus:

Dm
O God –
                       Am Em
Pour out your mercy to me
Dm
My God,
                  C    G/B
Oh what striking love to bleed. 


Verse 3:

Am         C/E           F    C
Fashion my heart in your alchemy
         F        C                 F    C
With the brass to front the devil?s purgery
Am           C/E       F      C
And surefire grace my Jesus speaks
   F        C                 F   C
I must. I will. I do believe. Oh Lord.
