       E5              C#5 
Under cloudy skies we live our lives 
            A5       E5         F#5 /B5 
Struggling day to day as trials arise 
      E5                 C#5 
Only when the light of Christ breaks through 
              A5    E5      F#5 
Do we find exception to this rule 
 
Chorus: 
        E5                    B5 C#5        A5 E5  F#5 
Dear exception, please come soon, I miss your company 
        E5                B5 C#5        A5 E5     F#5 
Dear exception, don't delay   I will wait patiently 
            D5                        F#5 
Will I see you in the kindness of a friend 
              /A5     B5  /C#5  /D#5 
Or the beauty of the setting sun? 
 
Refrain: 
E5 /G#5        B5                E5 
I   have to stop myself from trying 
C#5          G#5        A5                  B5 
Trying to predict what might be coming my way 
E5 /G#5      B5                E5 
I   must learn to trust in You 
   C#5          G#5             A5      B5        VAMP (2x) 
For in Your perfection lies the mystery of exceptions 
 
CHORUS 

...Will I see you in the laughter of a child 

Or the beauty of a moonlit night? 

REFRAIN 
       C#5         G#5              A5            B5 
...For in Your perfection lies the mystery of exceptions
