VERSE 1
B                          
Behold the Father’s heart
       E
The mystery He lavishes on us
      G#m
As deep cries out to deep
B                                     E
Oh how desperately He wants us
       G#m                           B
The things of earth stand next to Him
                                 E
Like a candle to the sun
               G#m
Unfailing Father
                 F#                  E
What compares to His great love

VERSE 2
Behold, His holy Son
The Lion and the Lamb given to us
The Word became a man
That my soul should know its Saviour
Forsaken for the sake of all mankind
Salvation is in His blood
Jesus, Messiah, the righteous died for love

PRE-CHORUS 1
               G#m           F#                    E
It wasn’t over for He is the risen One

CHORUS 1
                        B                              G#m7
Then sings my soul, then sings my soul
                           F#                                  E
How great Your love is, how great Your love is
(Repeat)
                        B
Then sings my soul

VERSE 3
Behold, I have a friend
The Spirit breathing holy fire within
My ever present help
Speaking truth when I can’t find it
Light up this broken heart and light my way
‘Til my time on earth is done
Oh, Holy Spirit
Breathe in me like kingdom come

PRE-CHORUS 2
Oh Holy Spirit
Let Your work in me be done

Repeat CHORUS 1

CHORUS 2
                        G#m7                       B
Then sings my soul, then sings my soul
                          F#                                    E
How great Your love is, how great Your love is

OUTRO
                         B            F#
Then sings my soul, my God
             E                     B
He who was and is to come
                    G#m              B                      F#sus F#
Prepare the way until the work on earth is done
                       E                                  F#sus
Watch as the clouds He rides swing low
                  G#m
Lift up the sound as He makes
                         E
Our praise His throne
                                  B/F#                  B5
Behold the Lord our God will lead us home.
