F#m / / Esus / / | A / / | Dmaj7 / / / / / / | / / / / / /

[VERSE 1]
F#m      Esus        D            A
I left a piece of my heart at the cross
    F#m        Esus        A       Dmaj7
You carried it with You to Heaven above
F#m         Esus          A       Dmaj7
All day and night my soul eagerly waits
   F#m        Esus          D         A
To see Heaven come and Your Kingdom in reign 

[VERSE 2]
F#m          Esus         D          A
There wasn’t space for my sin and my shame 
    F#m         Esus          A          Dmaj7
But that didn’t stop You from calling my name
    F#m        Esus        A           Dmaj7
And waking me up from this heartbroken place 
     F#m           Esus        D             A
With songs of Your freedom and notes of Your grace 

[CHORUS] 
E         F#m      D                   A
Stars and skylines can’t outshine Your glory 
E        F#m      D                     A
Time can pass by, it won’t outlast Your reign
   E        F#m          D             A
We join the praises of a thousand generations 
E   F#m     D          
Hallelujah, God , I can’t help but sing again

[VERSE 3]
F#m         Esus         D          A
See now the earth how it can’t help itself
F#m          Esus          A           Dmaj7
Trading Your treasures for counterfeit wealth
F#m           Esus           A       Dmaj7
Hear now Your church how She eagerly waits
        F#m            Esus     D                 A
Singing come now, Lord Jesus, restore what You’ve made

[CHORUS]

Movements fade away 
     F#m     E
Your Kingdom won’t 
       A/C#      D
You’re on the throne and now I know
     A
Your love can change the world 
       F#m   E
You’re in control 
    A/C#      D
You won’t let go
