1st verse
Em G D Am
looking out from his throne , the father of light and of men
Em G D Am
chose to make himself known and show us the way back to him
C D Am
speaking wisdom and truth into the hearts of peasants and kings

he began to unveil the word that would change the course of all things
Em D
with eyes wide open , all would see

and it cuts like a sword through the darkness

with a message of life to the hopeless and afraid

breathing life into all who believe
