Verse 1
              Em                   F       C
I tempered the storm, though your faith was small
   Am             Em              F      C
I prayed while you slept, and the night waged war
   Am          Em            F         C
We stood in the fire, and we walked on sea
         Am          Em            F      C
And we drank of the wine that was made of Me

Pre-chorus
Em F     Am F                    Am F
    Don't    turn your eyes(away) from Me
                     Dm C
    For My love won't be undone
Em F     Am F                   Am  F 
    Don't    hide your face from Me
                    Dm       C 
    For My light has surely come
            Em        F     C
    Surely come surely come

Verse 2
  Am          Em            F       C
I carried that cross, and I felt your pain
  Am          Em            F        C
I took up your crown, and I wore your shame
    Am          Em            F           C
And death was a fire, and its teeth were grim
      Am        Em                F        C
But I left it behind, along with all your sin

[Pre-chorus]
