  			VERSE 1:   
   
C         Am7             F2    
I was lost, I was in chains    
                          Gsus     G    
The world had a hold of me    
C                        Am7                                F2    
My heart was a stone, I was covered in shame    
                 G    
When He came for me    


PRE-CHORUS   
   
C                                  Am7    
I couldn't run, couldn't run, from His presence    
F2                                Gsus             G

Jesus, He loves me

He loves me, He is for me    
  C               Am7    
Jesus, how can it be    
      F2                    Gsus         
He loves me, He is for me    


VERSE 2:   
   
C                   Am7                    F2 
And It was a fire, deep in my soul    
             Gsus     G    
I'll never be the same    
C                              Am7                F2 
I stepped out of the dark, into the light    
               Gsus          G    
When he called my name

BRIDGE:    

Am7                                   F2    
He holds the star, and He holds my heart    
C                                      G     
With healing hands, that bear the scars    
Am7                                         F2    
The rugged Cross, where he died for me    
       C                      G    
My only hope, my everything
