D                            A      D
You held out Your arms, I walked away
G      Bm        A
Insolent, I spurned Your face
D                          A       D
Squandering the gifts You gave to me
G      Bm        A
Holding close forbidden things
G       D       A      Bm     G    D          A
Destitute, a rebel still, a fool in all my pride
D                              A     D
The world I once enjoyed is death to me
G          A          D
No joy, no hope, no life

D                                A         D
Where now are the friends that I had bought
G           Bm      A
Gone with every penny lost
D                             A       D
What hope could there be for such as I
G       Bm       A
Sold out to a world of lies
G       D       A      Bm     G    D          A
Oh to see Your face again, it seems so distant now
D                            A        D
Could it be that You would take me back
G          A          D
A servant in Your house

D                           A         D
You held out Your arms, I see them still
G           Bm      A
You never left, You never will
D                      A       D
Running to embrace me, now I know
G              Bm       A
Your cords of love will always hold
G        D        A          Bm
Mercy's robe, a ring of grace
G            D       A
Such favor undeserved
D                   A        D
You sing over me and celebrate
G          A          D
The rebel now Your child
