D5    D5    B5    A5
My son, My son, why are you striving,

G5    D5    E5   A5
You can't add one thing to what's been done for you,

D5    D5    B5    A5
I did it all while I was dying,

                   G5   D5  E5    D5  D5  B5
Blessings that will fill your heart, I see no stain upon you,

                   G5   D5  E5    D5  D5  B5
Because you are My child and you know me, to Me you're only holy,
  
                    E5    G5
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.
