Citizens!

In Tenderness

Citizens!


Tom: E

A        C#m     E      B
In tenderness He sought me
A         C#m        E     B
Weary and sick with sin
A          C#m        E       B
And on His shoulders brought me
A            C#m E     B
Back to His fold again
A           C#m     E        B    A            C#m      E      B
While angels in His presence sang, until the courts of heaven rang

[Chorus]
A       C#m    E         B
O - o - oh the love that sought me!
A      C#m     E          B
O - o - oh the blood that bought me!
A      C#m        E                  B      A
Oh the grace that brought me to the fold of God
C#m                   B
Grace that brought me to the fold of God

[Verse 2]
He died for me while I was sinning..
Needy and poor and blind
He whispered to assure me...
"I've found thee; thou art Mine"
I never heard a sweeter voice, it made my aching heart rejoice

[Verse 3]
Upon His grace I'll daily ponder
and sing anew His praise
With all adoring wonder,
His blessings I retrace.
It seems as if eternal days, are far too short to sing His praise.
