The first time

                

DO          SOL
Day after day
               RE-
I try to explain You
                 FA
Like I can contain You
                       DO
In so many words
                       SOL
You are the ocean
                        RE-
And I’m on the shore line
                   FA
Thinking I know You
                                     LA-
Like You could be learned

SOL               LA-
  It’s so amazing
         SOL            FA
That You’d ever save me

DO                                SOL
I thought I knew Your face
                                    RE-
I thought I tasted grace
                                 FA
But I have never felt anything
                DO
close to this
                                   SOL
Just when I’d seen it all
                                              RE-
New mercy breaks the door
                                         FA
With my eyes opened wide
                        DO
It feels like the first time, first time
                        RE-                  FA
It feels like the first time, first time

After all of my searching
All of my reaching
I’m left with nothing
Nothing of worth
You treasure the broken
Over and over
Give me a hope that
can never be earned

SOL               LA-
   It’s still amazing
         SOL            FA
That You’d ever save me

DO                                SOL
I thought I knew Your face...

Bridge:
                 DO
And Your beauty, no eye has seen
         LA-
Your majesty, overwhelm me
         SOL
Your love for me is healing,
             FA
You're God

DO                                SOL
I thought I knew Your face...

                                  DO
I feel the light for the first time, first time
                   RE-                 FA
Just like the first time, first time
                             DO
I can see for the first time, first time
                         RE-                  FA
Just like the first time
