Living Hope

|A

[Verse 1]
              A                 Esus
How great the chasm that lay between us
             D       F#m              E4
How high the mountain    I could not climb
         A                  Esus
In desperation, I turned to heaven
    A/C#       D      Esus   A
And spoke Your name into the night
                 D                     A
Then through the darkness, Your loving-kindness
     E/G#        F#m           Esus E
Tore through the shadows of my soul
            A                    Esus
The work is finished, the end is written
      D          E      A    Asus
Jesus Christ, my living hope

[Verse 2]
           A                 Esus
Who could imagine so great a mercy?
                 D      F#m               E
What heart could fathom    such boundless grace?
            A                     Esus E
The God of ages stepped down from glory
            D      E        A
To wear my sin and bear my shame
              D               A
The cross has spoken, I am forgiven
             F#m                E
The King of kings calls me His own
          A                  Esus
Beautiful Savior, I'm Yours forever
       D         E      A
Jesus Christ, my living hope

[Chorus]
     D  A
Hallelujah,
           E              F#m
Praise the One who set me free
     D  A
Hallelujah,
           E               F#m
Death has lost its grip on me
         D            A
You have broken every chain
            E             F#m
There's salvation in Your name
      D          A/E    A
Jesus Christ, my living hope

[Verse 3]
              A                       A/E  Esus
Then came the morning that sealed the promise
            D    F#m           Esus
Your buried body     began to breathe
           A                    E4
Out of the silence, the Roaring Lion
             D2           E4       A
Declared the grave has no claim on me

[Verse 3 - Repeat]
              A                       A/E  Esus
Then came the morning that sealed the promise
            D    F#m           Esus
Your buried body     began to breathe
           A                    E4
Out of the silence, the Roaring Lion
             D2           E4       A
Declared the grave has no claim on me

       D            E    A
Jesus, Yours is the victory!
