couldnt find chords online, so i figured some out. some of them might be wrong:P
the chords don't match up with the lyrics, but the meter is pretty straightforward 
so it'll be easy when you listen to it.


capo 3rd fret

intro:
D - E - G - A


Verse 1:
 
D    D/C#    Bm    A
My son, My son, why are you striving,

G    D/F#    Em   A
You can't add one thing to what's been done for you,

D    D/C#    Bm    A
I did it all while I was dying,

G    D/F#    Em   A
Rest in your faith, my peace will come to you.


Chorus:

                   G   D/F#  Em    D  D/C#  Bm           
For when I hear the praises start, I want to rain upon you,
 
                   G   D/F#  Em    D  D/C#  Bm
Blessings that will fill your heart, I see no stain upon you,

                   G   D/F#  Em    D  D/C#  Bm
Because you are My child and you know me, to Me you're only holy,

Nothing that you've done remains, only what you do for Me.

My child, My child, why are you weeping,
You will not have to wait forever,
That day and that hour is in My keeping,
The day I'll bring you into Heaven.
