Hymn of Heaven

By: Phil Wickham

Transpose:
[Verse 1]
      E       Esus               E
How I long to breathe the air of Hea - ven

              C#m      A                  B
Where pain is gone and mer - cy fills the streets

            E/G#    A               E    B/D#  C#m
To look u - pon the One who bled to save me

              A       B             E      Esus    E
And walk with Him for all etern - i - ty


[Chorus]

          E/G#  A        B                 E
There will be a day when all will bow be - fore Him

           E/G#   A        C#m              Bsus       
There will  be  a day when death will be no more

         E/G#    A         B               E    E/G#  A  
Standing face to face with He who died and rose  a - gain

      B           (E)
Holy, holy is the Lord


[Interlude 1}
(E) E/G# A / | C#m / B / 


[Verse 2] 
          E          Esus                  E
And every prayer, we prayed in des - per - a - tion

             C#m       A                      Bsus   B
The songs of faith, we sang through doubt and fear

       E/G#       A               E     B/D#  C#m
In the end, we'll see that it was worth it

             A        B             E      Esus    E   
When He re - turns to wipe away our tears 


[Chorus]

[Verse 3]

            E       Esus                E
And on that day, we join the re - sur - rec - tion

               C#m      A             Bsus   B
And stand be - side the heroes of the faith

         E/G#     A                      E   B/D#  C#m
With one voice, a thou - sand gen - er - a - tions

       A                 B           E      Esus    E
Sing, “Wor - thy is the lamb who was slain”

            E       Esus                E
And on that day, we join the re - sur - rec - tion

               C#m      A             Bsus   B
And stand be - side the heroes of the faith

         E/G#     A                      E   B/D#  C#m  B
With one voice, a thou - sand gen - er - a - tions

       A                B            C#m     E/G#
Sing, “Wor - thy is the lamb who was slain”

N.C.             E
Forever He shall reign”


[Outro]

   E/G#           A      B                 E
