_ You don't wanna give me a break, are you?
We're just gonna keep going.
[D] I _ can't even get my breath.
[A] _ _ [G] _ _
Great.
[D] This is the [Abm] same truth [E] _
[Ab] wrapped [Gm] with a different melody.
_ _ _ [D] It's all about Jesus and his goodness [A] and love for [Gbm] us.
_ [A] _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] It _ was _ [D] _ _
a life _ _ _ _
filled with aimless desperation _ _ _ _
without _ _ hope _
_ _ [Bm] walked the shell of [Bb] a man.
_ _ _ [G] _ [A] _ _
_ But [D] then _ _ [Gb] with a nail print
_ _ [C] stretched [G]
downward
_ [Em] just _ _
_ _ [D] one touch _ _ and
[A] a new _ life
_ [D] began _
_ _ and _ _ _ _ the _ [Em] _
[D] old [G] rugged _ cross
_ _ [D] made the new _ _ man _ _
_ _ in a _ love _ for _ _ heartache and [E] _ _
defeat.
_ _ [A] _ _
_ I [D] will praise him [C] _ _ [Bm]
[D] forever
_ [C] and _ [G] _ ever
_ for _
_ _ [Gm] [D] the _ cross made [Em] the _ [A] _
_ [Em] difference [D] for _
_ _ _ [G] me. _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ [D] There _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _
was no more anger. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Little _ feet [A] ran [Bm] in terror _ [Bb] to _ hide.
_ _ [A] _ Oh, _ but [D] now those walls [Gb] ring with [D]
love
[Gb] _ _ [C] _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ _ [D] since the _ _ [A] giver of life
moved [Bb] _ _ _ inside.
_ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] _ _
Now there's a room
_ _ [Ab] filled with _ _ sad _ _
[Eb] ashen _ _ [Ab] [Eb] faces. _
_ _ _ Without [Cm] _
_ _ hope
[C] death [Gm] has [Dm] wrapped [Gm] them _ _ in [Db] glue. _
_ [B] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] At the _ sight of a _ _ savior's [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] rejoicing _
[F] for _ [Eb] your _ _ life [Bb] _ can be _ _ [Eb] sealed
in a _ dream [Ab] of _
_ _ _ [Eb] your [Fm] _
[Eb] own
_ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] made the _ difference _ _ _
to get a _ life
_ bound for harmony
_ [F] and in need _ [B] [Bb] be beat. _
[E] I will _ praise him [D] forever
[E] _
_ _ _ [D] and [A]
ever _ _ _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ [B] for the _
_ [A] _ _ [Dbm] _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _
cross made _ the _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _
difference for _ me. _
