Grace - Laura Story ( Lyrics and Chords )

INTRO:
G C G /B C D 


VERSE 1:
   G               G /C 
MY HEART IS SO PROUD. 
   G /D         G 
MY MIND IS SO UNFOCUSED.
  Em                 C                Am           D      G 
I SEE THE THINGS YOU DO THROUGH ME AS GREAT THINGS I HAVE DONE. 
    G /B              C           D     Ebm      Em     D     
AND NOW YOU GENTLY BREAK ME, THEN LOVINGLY YOU TAKE ME 
    Am             Bm        C             D 
AND HOLD ME AS MY FATHER AND MOLD ME AS MY MAKER.


CHORUS:
            G        G /B           C   
I ASK YOU: "HOW MANY TIMES WILL YOU PICK ME UP, 
     D         D /F#        G 
WHEN I KEEP ON LETTING YOU DOWN?
    Em                    C 
AND EACH TIME I WILL FALL SHORT OF YOUR GLORY, 
    Am                      D 
HOW FAR WILL FORGIVENESS ABOUND?"
        G /B                  C            
AND YOU ANSWER: " MY CHILD, I LOVE YOU.
       D              Ebm       Em     D    
AND AS LONG AS YOU'RE SEEKING MY FACE, 
       Am                      D                 G       C G /B C D 
YOU'LL WALK IN THE POWER OF MY DAILY SUFFICIENT GRACE."


VERSE 2:
   G                C        D      D /F#    G 
AT TIMES I MAY GROW WEAK AND FEEL A BIT DISCOURAGED, 
Em               C                     Am   D       G         
KNOWING THAT SOMEONE, SOMEWHERE, COULD DO A BETTER JOB. 
    G /B         C         G         D /F#   Em       D 
FOR WHO AM I TO SERVE YOU? I KNOW I DON'T DESERVE YOU. 
    Am                   Bm                    C                D 
AND THAT'S THE PART THAT BURNS IN MY HEART AND KEEPS ME HANGING ON. 



CHORUS:
            G        G /B           C   
I ASK YOU: "HOW MANY TIMES WILL YOU PICK ME UP, 
     D         D /F#        G 
WHEN I KEEP ON LETTING YOU DOWN?
    Em                    C 
AND EACH TIME I WILL FALL SHORT OF YOUR GLORY, 
    Am                      D 
HOW FAR WILL FORGIVENESS ABOUND?"
        G /B                  C            
AND YOU ANSWER: " MY CHILD, I LOVE YOU.
       D              Ebm       Em     D    
AND AS LONG AS YOU'RE SEEKING MY FACE, 
       Am                      D                C        G /B 
YOU'LL WALK IN THE POWER OF MY DAILY SUFFICIENT GRACE."


CODA:
Am   D       G       G /B   C       D 
 YOU ARE SO PATIENT WITH ME, LORD.


VERSE3:
     G                  C        D /F#                    G                                    
AS I WALK WITH YOU, I'M LEARNING WHAT YOUR GRACE REALLY MEANS. 
    Em                 C             Am      D       G       
THE PRICE THAT I COULD NEVER PAY WAS PAID AT CALVARY. 
    G /B                   C            G            D /F# Em      D          
SO, INSTEAD OF TRYING TO REPAY YOU, I'M LEARNING TO SIMPLY OBEY YOU
   Am            Bm        G 
BY GIVING UP MY LIFE TO YOU 
    C                        D 
FOR ALL THAT YOU'VE GIVEN TO ME.



CHORUS:
            G        G /B           C   
I ASK YOU: "HOW MANY TIMES WILL YOU PICK ME UP, 
     D         D /F#        G 
WHEN I KEEP ON LETTING YOU DOWN?
    Em                    C 
AND EACH TIME I WILL FALL SHORT OF YOUR GLORY, 
    Am                      D 
HOW FAR WILL FORGIVENESS ABOUND?"
        G /B                  C            
AND YOU ANSWER: " MY CHILD, I LOVE YOU.
       D              Ebm       Em     D    
AND AS LONG AS YOU'RE SEEKING MY FACE, 
       Am                      D                G        C G /B C D G 
YOU'LL WALK IN THE POWER OF MY DAILY SUFFICIENT GRACE."
