[Verse 3]

C minorCm                             F minorFm
Jesus it fills our hearts with wonder
Bb majorBb                                 Ebsus  Eb MajorEb
That you would leave your heavenly place

You came to forfeit every mercy

To die that mercy we would find
C minorCm           Bb/DBb/D             Ab/Eb    Eb MajorEb
And then you hung alone in darkness
Ab/C      Bb majorBb                        C minorCm     F minorFm  Bb majorBb  Eb MajorEb
So in our hearts your grace would shine
