I Need You Now

     Ab             Eb                Bb
I've never seen that little town where You were born
      Db              Cm           Bb
It was long before my time and far away
       Ab             Eb             Bb
But as time goes on I think about You more and more
          Cm                         F
And wonder what it was like in those day's
 Bb
I wish I could have walked with You
   Eb
You might have called me friend
        Cm7                                F
But there's no way I could've known You then


[Chorus]
                 Bb
But I know You now
              Gm
I know Your name
           Eb                            F
A lot of awesome things You did and why You came
          Gm
I didn't know You when
      F                   Eb
You helped that lame man rise up from his bed
           Gm
I didn't know You when
      F                     Eb                   F
You stood there and called Lazarus from the dead
                Bb
But I know You now


[Verse 2]
     Ab            Eb              Bb
I didn't see You feed that tired hungry crowd
           Db             Cm7          Bb
With five loaves and two fish one afternoon
        Ab                  Eb
And I didn't see You catch Peter's hand
    Bb
So he wouldn't drown
         Cm7                         F
When he tried the walk on water like You
     Bb             Dm
I couldn't see Your face
           Eb
When You taught those little kids
         Cm                              F
There's just no way I could've seen You then


[Chorus]
               Bb
But I see You now
        Gm
I see Your love
         Eb                          F
I see a tiny glimpse of You in every one of us
         Gm               F
I didn't see You on the mount of olives
  Eb
Crying as You prayed
            Gm           F                   Eb            F
I couldn't see You when You were kissed by Judus and betrayed
               Eb  Bb
But I see You now


[Bridge]
Eb Bb          F                  Eb
Oh, I didn't need You when that bitter angry mob
        Bb           F
Shouted out crucify him

And I couldn't have needed You
            Eb
When they laughed and mocked You
         Cm                            F
But it could be I'm a little bit like them


[Chorus]
                  Bb
Cause I need You now
      Gm
I need Your grace
            Eb                        F
And how I needed Your forgiveness to be saved
          Bb                             Eb
I didn't need You when Pilates soldiers beat You to the ground
          Gm                F
I didn't need You when You hung there
          Eb                  F
Bleeding from Your thorny crown
                Bb
But I need You now


[Outro]
                Gm  Eb  Bb
Oh, I need You now
