Song of the Redeemed Ascend the Hill
[Intro]
[G] [Em] [G] [Em] [D] [C] [D]
[Verse]
[Em]Oh I was a sinner an outsider
Seperated from the God I love
I carried a [G]debt a price on my head
I could not free myself from
And there was a b[C]urden I could feel its heavy load
A judgement from above
I was slave to my s[D]hame prisoner to the grave
Hoping for freedom
Then my s[Em]tory changed!
A weighty judgement was lifted on my behalf
And I was l[D]ost yes but I've been found
By an anchor that holds me fast
My re[C]deemer my reconciler
He has freed me from the past
And set me ri[D]ght he called me by name
And lifted my curse at last!
[Cborus]
[C]Jesus your na[G]me is lifted [Em]high
[C]Jesus your na[G]me is lifted [Em]high
[Am]Jesus your [C]name is l[G]ifted [Em]high
[Verse]
[Em]And oh the joy of my burdens lifted
Of the prisoner set free
I went from s[D]tumbling through the darkness
To walking in light and now I can see
The [C]hope that I have is sure and steadfast
Has bound my wandering heart to thee
So I'm singin' [D]"Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me"
And he took my p[Em]lace!
He paid a debt he did not owe
He came in the f[D]lesh bore my sin and death
A fate that I will never know
And Jesus [C]Christ the ransom for all
He counted it joy to take the grave
And then God r[D]aised him from the dead
And in his name is the power to save![G]
[Cborus]
[C]Jesus your na[G]me is lifted [Em]high
[C]Jesus your na[G]me is lifted [Em]high
[Am]Jesus your [C]name is l[G]ifted [Em]high
[Interlude]
[Em] [G] [D] [C] [D]
[Em]This is the song of the redeemed
[D]All praise and glory to our king
[C]A thousand tongues therefore to sing
[D]Extolling Jesus for eternity
