Intro 1
(D major)
Verse 1
I was looking for (D major) excuses
and you (A major) offered me my soul (F sharp major)
In the (B minor) name of all my weakness,
in the name of rock (E major) and roll
By (F sharp major) a sickness I'm healed,
cause it broke (G major) you I'm whole
Oh, (B minor) the (G major) wonderful blood of (A major) Jesus
(D major) I went looking for the fig leaves
And you asked me (A major) what they're for
(B flatdim) I (F sharp major) was (B minor) building up a wall
And you (E major) offered me a door
(B minor) I (E major) was (F sharp major) hoping for silver spoons
When you (G major) handed me a sword
Oh, (B minor) the (G major) wonderful blood of (A major) Jesus
(D major) Maker (A major) is (F sharp major) (B minor) unmade
Law (F sharp major) succumbs to (G major) hate
Life (A major) in selfless (D major) slain
Is death the (F sharp major) only way?
Is death the only way?
I went (D major) looking for religion
Absolutely (A major) not a friend
I (F sharp major) went (B minor) looking for ways out,
and He (E major) showed me the way in (B minor)
I went (F sharp major) looking for a ghost,
and instead (G major) I found a man
Oh, (B minor) the (G major) wonderful blood of (A major) Jesus
(D major) Felt like I was at the end,
felt like (A major) giving up on life
(F sharp major) I (B minor) talked about your mother,
and denied (E major) you once or twice
Yeah, (F sharp major) I plucked out your beard,
I put a (G major) sword into your side
Oh, (B minor) the (G major) wonderful blood of (A major) Jesus
(D major) Life (A major) and (G major) love (F sharp major) are torn (B minor)
By the (F sharp major) blades of all our swords (G major)
We (A major) cut the final cord (D major)
But this is mer (F sharp major) cy's war,
this is mercy's war
I was (D major) chasing after safety,
when my (A major) world went up in flames
(F sharp major) I (B flatdim) (B minor) watched all my defenses
wash like ashes down (E major) the drain
(A flatdim) I (E major) thought (F sharp major) you were a stranger,
but you (G major) called me out by name
Oh, (B minor) the (G major) wonderful blood of (A major) Jesus
(D major) Your wounds were gaping open
I couldn't (A major) recognize you at first
(B flatdim) All (B minor) I had to offer
Was an (E major) insult or a curse
(F sharp major) The blood dripped down like poison
On the (G major) nauseated earth
Oh, (B minor) the (G major) wonderful blood of (A major) Jesus
(D major) This is (F sharp major) mercy's world
This is (G major) mercy's war
This is (D major) mercy's war (G major)
This is (F sharp major) mercy's world (G major) (D major) (G major) (F sharp major)
(G major) Oh, (B minor) the (G major) wonderful God of (A major) Jesus you
