Across the Lands Keith and Kristyn Getty
[G/A]You're [A7]the Wo[D]rd of God the Fa[G]ther
From be[D]fore the world be[A]gan.
Ev'ry [G]star and ev'ry [D/F#]planet
Has been [Em7]fashioned by Your h[G]and.
[G/A]All c[A7]reation holds [G]together
[A7]By the p[D]ower of Your v[A]oice.
Let the [G]skies declare Your [D/F#]glory;
Let the [Em7]land and s[G6]eas rej[Asus]oice!
CHORUS
[Asus]You're t[A]he A[G]uthor of c[D/F#]reation;
You're the [G]Lord [Aadd9]of ev'ry m[Bm]an;
[Bm/A] And Your c[G]ry of [G/A]love rings [Bm7]out a[A7]cross the l[D]ands.

VERSE 2
[G/A]Yet [A7]You l[D]eft the gaze of a[G]ngels,
Came to s[D]eek and save the l[A]ost,
And exch[G]anged the joy of h[D/F#]eaven
For the[Em7] anguish of a c[G]ross.
[G/A]With [A7]a prayer You fed the h[G]ungry;
[A7]With a w[D]ord You calmed the s[A]ea;
Yet how s[G]ilently You [D/F#]suffered
That the g[Em7]uilty m[G6]ay go [Asus]free!
CHORUS
[Asus]You're t[A]he A[G]uthor of c[D/F#]reation;
You're the [G]Lord [Aadd9]of ev'ry m[Bm]an;
[Bm/A] And Your c[G]ry of [G/A]love rings [Bm7]out a[A7]cross the l[D]ands.

VERSE 3
[A7sus]With [A7]a [D]shout You rose vict[G]orious,
Wresting [D]vict'ry from the g[A]rave,
And asc[G]ended into [D/F#]heaven,
Leading c[Em7]aptives in Your [G]way.
[G/A]Now Y[A7]ou s[D]tand before the F[G]ather,
[A7]Interc[D]eding for Your [A]own;
From each t[G]ribe and tongue and [D/F#]nation,
You are l[Em7]eading [G6]sinners [Asus]home!
CHORUS

[Bm/A] And Your c[G]ry of [G/A]love rings [Bm7]out a[A7]cross the l[D]ands.
