Splinters And Stones

[Intro] D

D
Fate
                                 Bm
Holds nothing on the providence I know
                                     G2
No longer bound to things of wood and stone
                              D
When all I had to offer was my worst
    A                              D
You saw my heavy heart and loved me first

                                 Bm
Your beauty staring down my brokenness
                                          G2
You chose to throw Your heart into the mess
                                D
Compassion crashing down upon my debt
           Asus
You were there

         Bm
All this time
        G                        D
Like a river running through my failure
    A                   Bm
You carried me all this time
              G
Like the splinters buried in
         D                Asus
Your shoulders You carry me now

     D
Hallelujah
                                Asus
If ever now my heart cries hallelujah
                                  G
If ever now in the wonder of Your grace
                                     D
A thousand times a thousand years my soul
      Asus
Will say

  D
Grace
                                       Bm
You saw the crushing weight my flesh deserved
                                         G2
You kneeled and wrote forgiveness in the dirt
                                         D
And one by one the stones fell where they lay
                                 Bm
As one by one my accusers walked away
                                      G
With nothing left to throw they made a cross
                                 D
And knowing only love could count the cost
           Asus
You were there

         Bm
All this time
        G                        D
Like a river running through my failure
    A                   Bm
You carried me all this time
              G
Like the splinters buried in
         D
Your shoulders
     Asus               Bm
Your love carried all my shame
  G                     D
Jesus how my soul will praise You
    A                   Bm
You carried me all this way
         G
Like a diamond in the scars upon
D                       Asus
  Your crown You carry me now

     D
Hallelujah
                                A
If ever now my heart cries hallelujah
                                  G
If ever now in the wonder of Your grace
                                     D
A thousand times a thousand years my soul
      Asus
Will say

     D
Hallelujah
                                  Asus
Forever now in the greatness of my Saviour
                                     G
Forever now in the brightness of Your Name
                                 D
Jesus on this rock I'll sing Your praise
