You Stepped Into My Egypt

E    E    E    E


[Verse 1]

           E                  B
I need words deeper than the ocean
            C#m             A
I need a voice bigger than the sky
            E                   B
I need a song worthy of Your nail scars
                 C#m                  A       E
To sing of the love that took a chance on me


[Chorus 1]

A     C#m             B         E
O Yahweh the God who fights for me
      C#m          B        A
My Hallelujah, my soul’s reprieve
C#m            B          E
Long before my heart believed
        C#m           B      A
Oh, how far You would go for me?


[Verse 2]

            E                  B
I thought God was further than horizons
            C#m                A
I thought grace was just beyond my reach
            E                               B
But you said my life was worthy of Your nail scars
                      C#m                        A       E
So I’ll sing like it was 'cause you took a chance on me


[Chorus 2]

A     C#m             B         E
O Yahweh the God who fights for me
      C#m          B        A
My Hallelujah, my soul’s reprieve
C#m            B          E
Long before my heart believed
        C#m           B      A
Oh, how far You would go for me?
        C#m           B      A
Oh, how far You would go for me?
        C#m           B      A
Oh, how far You would go for me?


[Bridge 1]

    A
You stepped into my Egypt
    B
You took me by the hand
    C#m
You marched me out in freedom
  E
Into the promised land
    A
Now I will not forget You
     B
I’ll sing of all You've done
         C#m
Death is swallowed up forever
       E
By the fury of Your love


[Verse 3]

            E                      B
I know a God who’s closer than a brother
            C#m              A
I know a grace far beyond belief
                 E                         B
I know I’m healed in the power of Your nail scars
                      C#m                 A       E
'Cause yours is a love that took a chance on me


[Bridge 2]

                 A
When I was at my lowest
                    E
You ran to bring me home
                 A
When I was at my lowest
                       E
You still were on your throne
                   A         E
When I was still a long way off
                    A
You ran to bring me home


[Bridge 3]

    A
You stepped into my Egypt
    B
You took me by the hand
    C#m
You marched me out in freedom
  E
Into the promised land
    A
Now I will not forget You
     B
I’ll sing of all You've done
         C#m
Death is swallowed up forever
       E
By the fury of Your love
