EmDsus/G/Dsus
When they laid my King to rest
D
It was my shame He wore to bed
EmDsus/G/Dsus
And it's the only part of Him
D
The Father did not resurrect
C
Now in my Father's land,
There are no lesser men,
Em
Nobody barely wins or only just gets in,
C
'Cause Jesus never fell in love,
Em
With open eyes He walked directly to the cross,
CD
He knew exactly what I cost,
and He still went.
EmDsus/G/DsusDEm
Like a body, close-connected and known,
Dsus/G/DsusD
So You've called us, and so we are,
Em
And like a child nurtured, protected, adored,
Dsus/G/DsusD
Somehow You name us, and so we are,
C
And like a bride, cherished at dawn and waited for,
Em
So intimate with every title that You love her for.
C
My God, You never fell in love,
Em
With open eyes You chose to die upon the cross,
CD
You knew exactly what I cost,
CD
I was worthless, but you made me worth it,
CD
I was a slave content to beg beneath your table,
But You took me in and made me a son.

When I finally arrive and my body glides me home,
GDsusC
Jesus, who once bore my shame, adorned in majesty on His throne
GDsusC
I will stand and belong, wearing His righteousness as my cloak
