[Verse 1]


            Em       D/F#         G
The hour is dark and it's hard to see

             Dsus                                           C
What You are do - in’ here in the ruins and where this will lead 

          Em        D/F#             G
Oh, but I know that down through the years

                  Dsus                                        
I'll look on this mo - ment and see Your hand on it 

                 C
And know You were here


[Pre-Chorus 1]

    D                   Em                C
And I'll testify of the batt - les You've won

    D                              Em            C
How You were my portion when there was - n’t e - nough

    D                   Em              C
And I'll testify of the seas that we’ve  crossed

    D                         Em              C 
The wat - ers You parted, the waves that I’ve   walked



[Chorus 1]


         D            Em          C
Singing, oh-oh-oh, my God did not fail

D                  Em            C
Oh-oh-oh, it's the sto - ry I'll tell

         D           Em         C
Singing, oh-oh-oh, I know it is well

D                  Em            C
Oh-oh-oh, it's the sto - ry I'll tell


[Verse 2] 

               Em        D/F#           G
Believing gets hard when op - tions are few

                             Dsus                                          
When I can't see what You're doin', I know that You're proving

                         C
You're the God who comes through

          Em        D/F#        G
Oh, but I know that ov - er the years

                       Dsus
I'll look back on this mo - ment and see Your hand on it

                  C
And know You were here


[Pre-Chorus 1]


[Chorus 2]

         D     Em                 C
Singing, oh-oh-oh, my God did not fail

D     Em                         C
Oh-oh-oh, it's the sto - ry I'll tell

         D     Em               C
Singing, oh-oh-oh, I know it is well

D     Em                         C
Oh-oh-oh, it's the sto - ry I'll tell


[Bridge] x2

    G                   D/F#       Em          C
And all that is left is high - est prais - es,

   G                      D/F#    Em       C
So sing hallelujah to the Rock of Ag - es

    G                   D/F#       Em          C
And all that is left is high - est prais - es,

   G                      D/F#    Em       C
So sing hallelujah to the Rock of Ag - es



[Pre-Chorus 2]


    D                   Em                C
And I'll testify of the batt - les You've won

    D                              Em            C
How You were my portion when there was - n’t e - nough

    D                   Em              C
And I'll testify of the seas that we’ve  crossed

    D                         Em         C     Am
The wat - ers You parted, the waves that I’ve  walked


[Chorus 2]



[Outro]

D    Em                          C
          it's the sto - ry I'll tell


D    Em                          C
          it's the sto - ry I'll tell
