God Be Praised

Verse 1:
F# C#
You left Your throne for our salvation
     F# Bbm   G#
Jesus Christ, the hope of our nation
       F#        C#
Battered by the weight of our nature
F#      G#       
For our crimes You came to save

Verse 2:
God of the world, You walked among us
Covered in flesh, in all of our weakness
You were despised, embarrassed, and lonely 
Through Your shame we came alive

Chorus: 
 F# - Bbm 
God be praised 
C#              G#  F#   Bbm 
Forever we will shout Your Name
C#  G#
Lord over all
G Bm 
You left heaven for earth
   C# G#
Your glory for us 
         F#              G#       
Risen King be lifted high

Verse 3:
Out of the dark, and into Your likeness
Caught in hope, a love so relentless
Called by name, Your sons and Your daughters
Bought with a price, we are alive

Bridge: 
Bbm        G#            C#        F#
Because I'm alive, I'll give You my life
Bbm        G#            C#        F#
Because I am free, I'll bow at Your feet
Bbm        G#                 C#        F#
Because I am loved, I'm able to love
Bbm        G#                 C#        F#
Because I am Yours, my worth is secure
