verse 1: 

G                    C   G 
You have given us a new name 
     G 
The sons and daughters  
             C 
Of your righteousness 
     G                     C    G 
And You have taken all of our shame 
      G          
And given us the gift  
      C 
Of holiness 
             D             Em 
Lord we're crying out for faith 
      D 
To believe the words You say 


        C        G 
You say we are loved 
        D            Em 
You say we belong to You 
           C    G 
Your grace is enough 
         D                
Nothing more that we can do 
          C          G 
You say we've been bought  
          D             Em 
By Your blood, by Your blood 
     C               D 
And all that we can say  
    C  G 
Is amen 
C   G 
Amen (1st time only) 


verse 2: 

G                    C   G 
You have given us a new hope 
     C     G 
An anchor for the soul  
                C 
That shall not fail 
G                       C     G 
Jesus we believe Your truth shines 
    C         G 
Yes in the darkest night 
             C 
You shall prevail 
             D             Em 
Lord we're crying out for faith 
      D 
To believe the words You say
