         So Great A Salvation

      A            Bm
     Woke up this morning
     C#m                D(barred)   A
     Just had to thank God for my life
     A                 Bm
     Just read through James' Book
     C#m                 D(barred)
     Start to pray and I ask God for a wife
     A              Bm
     It's a time of devotion
     C#m                D         A
     As I sit and speak to my God unseen
     A           Bm
     Why does he listen?
     C#m                 D                 A
     Well I love him and he's in love with me

     A   E      F#m            D
     Why me God Why should you choose me?
     A       E        F#m     D        A
     On your team God can You use even me?


     A         Bm
     I think a few years back
     C#m            D         A
     On a road that headed to nowhere
     A            Bm
     Now that you found me
     C#m           D
     I can see how you were always there
     A          Bm
     SO Great a salvation
     C#m           D               A
     But to you my Jesus what am I worth
     A          Bm
     It's quiet times like this
     C#m                       D                    A
     I feel I get a glimpse of heaven write here on earth

        (Sing with some hard passion on the last chorus)
     A    E              F#m     D
     Oh--Hold me in Your arms of Love
     A           E                 F#m       D
     Sometimes I swear I feel your heartbeat
     A       E          F#m       D
     I could never ever thank you enough
     A             E            F#m       D
     But here's my life for whatever it's worth

     Repeat the A Bm C#m D A progression about 4 times then
     hit the D for the last time then to end the song play

     D C#m F#m Bm the A good long open strummed A

     After the last Chorus there is a sweet solo-a 2nd guitar
     plays while you are repeating the progression.  I'm working on
the solo, I'll see if I can't send it in later.

   This is a cool worship-chillin song have fun playin'
   it in a swing style.

   Note:  When you play the progression, barre the chords-you should
end up on the 5th fret with the barred D then back down to           the
A chord.
