C            F       C       G             C 
Here I am before you now, a beggar in the street 
C            F       C        G             C 
Here I am before you now, the woman at your feet 
   C            F          C         G              C 
I only want to touch your robe, and then I will be clean 
C                   F          C        G             C 
Yea I only need to feel your grace and then I will be free 


Chorus 

C              F           C 
While we were sinners and lost 
     G      C 
You walked among us 
  C                F        C 
While we were too weak to stand 
    G        Am 
You bore our cross 
 C             F            C 
And now your vic’try songs raised 
              G      Am 
It’s echoing age to age 
              C  F  C 
That through daaaaaaarkness 
G 
There came a light

Verse 

C            F     C     G                C 
Here I am a hollow man, walking with the dead 
C            F        C             G               C 
Here I am in scarlet robes, stones raised above my head 
C               F         C         G                 C 
I only need to hear your voice and then I’ll rise to sing 
     C                    F     C         G            C 
Yea I’ll get up off this dusty earth and bring my offering
