When I Hear the Praises Start Keith Green
couldnt find chords online, so i figured some out. some of them might be wrong:P
the chords don't match up with the lyrics, but the meter is pretty straightforward
so it'll be easy when you listen to it.

[D] [-] [E] [-] [G] [-] [A]
Verse 1:
[D]My so[D/C#]n, My so[Bm]n, why[A] are you striving,
[G]You c[D/F#]an't add[Em] one [A]thing to what's been done for you,
[D]I did[D/C#] it all [Bm]while [A]I was dying,
[G]Rest [D/F#]in your [Em]faith[A], my peace will come to you.
Chorus:
For when I hear the[G] pra[D/F#]ises s[Em]tart, [D]I w[D/C#]ant to[Bm] rain upon you,
Blessings that will[G] fil[D/F#]l your[Em] heart[D], I[D/C#] see n[Bm]o stain upon you,
Because you are My [G]chil[D/F#]d and [Em]you kn[D]ow [D/C#]me, to[Bm] Me you're only holy,
Nothing that you've [Emaj]done rem[G]ains, only what you do for Me.

[E]I know [E/D#]there are so[C#m] many thin[B]gs that you've been hearing,
[A]But you j[A/G#]ust hold on [F#m]to what I [B]have told you.
Chorus:
For when I hear t[A]he p[A/G#]raises[F#m] start, my [E]bride[E/D#], I wa[C#]nt to rain upon you,
Blessings that wi[A]ll f[A/G#]ill yo[F#m]ur heart, I[E] see n[E/D#]o stain[C#] upon you,
Because you are [A]My ch[A/G#]ild, an[F#m]d you know Me, t[E]o me [E/D#]you're[C#] only holy,
