The Gospel Was Promised Chords

 
Verse 1

    A           

The gospel was promised by sages and prophets

D                         A

 The Scriptures spoke of a Son

A

Descendant of David and yet uncreated

D                           A

Clothed in our flesh He would come

   F#m          E           A 

Predestined to seek us, He took on our weakness

Bm            F#m        D 

 And died our death on the cross

    F#m         E            A

But just as was spoken, the grave could not hold Him

Bm            F#m      D 

 The glorious Son of God



Chorus

            A                  E

His name is Jesus, His name is Jesus

           F#m         D          A   E 

His name is Jesus Christ, our Lord

   



Verse 2

       A

We're loved and forgiven, compelled by a vision

D                     A 

 To see His mercy proclaimed

A

Announcing salvation to every nation

D                      A 

 All for the sake of His name

      F#m         E            A 

We're no longer strangers, for Jesus, our Savior

Bm            F#m      D 

 Has come to make us His own

       F#m         E        A 

We're called to be holy and now we live only

Bm           F#m       D 

 To make His glory known
