Forgiven and Loved (F)

intro:	|F’’-Am|Bb’’’|F’’-Am|Bb’’’|


verse 1:
F                    Am  Bb
Tell me I’m forgiven and loved,
         F                       Am     Bb
‘Cause I hear it from the street corner preachers
       F                        Am     Bb
On how God is love, and how man can be clean.
       Dm                  Am         Bb7
But my joy has been on holiday and my peace has almost passed away.
Am                Gm     F
Tell me I’m forgiven and free.

chorus 1:
      Dm                            Bb
Oh, I tried and tried to rectify my hopeless situation,
      Dm                                   Gm
But I bought the lie. I still have work to do.
        Dm                              G
Now I’m working nine to five like I can earn my own salvation,
          Bb/C                 |F’’-Am|Bb’’’|F’’-Am|Bb’’’|
But there is no condemnation in You.

verse 2:
    Bb7                             F    Am  Bb
Oh, whisper to me now that it’s for real,    Oh,
              F                      Am       Bb
‘Cause in the silence of these walls righteousness lost its appeal.
Dm                          Am         Bb7
   Dirty deeds have done me in, oh but that can’t stop the faithful friend
       Am               Gm     F                               Am’-Bbm’|Cm’’’
Giving mercy once again as You heal, here it is I’m feeling it . . .

REPEAT CHORUS 1 (except for last line):
          Bb/C (builds over 8 counts)
But there is no condemnation . . .

CHORUS 2:
     Dm                          Bb
O He died, He died to rectify my hopeless situation,
        Dm                         G
And His blood commands my guilt to leave.
       Bb                     F/A
Now on Calvary I stand, empty pockets, open hands,
          Bb/C                        |F’’-Am|Bb’’’|F’’-Am|Bb’’’|
Oh, there is no condemnation . . . for me.
