C - D - F - G


Verse 1:
 
C    C/B    Am    G
My son, My son, why are you striving,

F    C/E    Dm   G
You can't add one thing to what's been done for you,

C    C/B    Am    G
I did it all while I was dying,

F    C/E    Dm   G
Rest in your faith, my peace will come to you.


Chorus:

                   F   C/E  Dm    C  C/B  Am           
For when I hear the praises start, I want to rain upon you,
 
                   F   C/E  Dm    C  C/B  Am
Blessings that will fill your heart, I see no stain upon you,

                   F   C/E  Dm    C  C/B  Am
Because you are My child and you know me, to Me you're only holy,
  
                    Dmaj    F
Nothing that you've done remains, only what you do for Me.


Repeat Intro once

Verse 2:
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.

Verse 3:

My precious bride, the day is nearing,

G      G/Gb       Em     A
When I'll take you in My arms and hold you,

D      D/Db        Bm       A
I know there are so many things that you've been hearing,

G        G/Gb        Em       A
But you just hold on to what I have told you.

                 G   G/Gb  Em        D    D/Db  B
For when I hear the praises start, my bride, I want to rain upon you,

Blessings that will fill your heart, I see no stain upon you,

                G    G/Gb   Em             D    D/Db  B
Because you are My child, and you know Me, to me you're only holy,

Nothing that you've done, will remain, only what you do for me.
