WAS BLIND, BUT NOW I SEE.

HOW PRECIOUS DID THAT GRACE APPEAR
    Cm     F       Bb
THE HOUR I FIRST BELIEVED!

        Bb            Eb         Bb
THROUGH MANY DANGERS, TOILS AND SNARES,
  Bb           F
I HAVE ALREADY COME;

THE LORD HAS PROMISED GOOD TO ME,
    Bb             F
HIS WORD MY HOPE SECURES;

HE WILL MY SHIELD AND PORTION BE,
   Cm      F      Bb
AS LONG AS LIFE ENDURES.

AND MORTAL LIFE SHALL CEASE,

I SHALL POSSESS, WITHIN THE VEIL,
  Cm      F       Bb
A LIFE OF JOY AND PEACE.


VERSE6:
    Bb                  Eb         Bb
THE EARTH SHALL SOON DISSOLVE LIKE SNOW,

THE SUN FORBEAR TO SHINE;
    Bb       Bb7       Eb     Bb
BUT GOD, WHO CALLED ME HERE BELOW,
     Cm    F    Bb
WILL BE FOREVER MINE.


VERSE7:
     Bb                   Eb       Bb
WHEN WE’VE BEEN THERE TEN THOUSAND YEARS,
       Bb             F
BRIGHT SHINING AS THE SUN,
      Bb      Bb7     Eb         Bb
WE’VE NO LESS DAYS TO SING GOD’S PRAISE
     Cm        F       Bb
THAN WHEN WE’D FIRST BEGUN.
