[Verse 1]
C F
We were wand’ring in the desert with our souls so starved and weak
Am7 G
We were hungry for a homeland we did not know how to seek
C F
But we lifted up our voices to the only One who hears
C G Am
And the God of mercy came and brought us near.
[Verse 2]
C F
We were locked out of the garden, and our backs bent down with pain.
Am7 G
In the shadow of death's darkness we were slaves to sin and blame.
C F
And we cried out in our labor to the only one who hears
C G Am G
And the God of mercy wiped away our tears.
[Chorus]
C E7 F C
Oh give thanks to the LORD for His love endures for-ever!
Am C D7 G7
We were wandering and lost, and our Father brought us home
C E7 F C
To a safe dwelling place, to a feast of joy and laughter.
Am F C
Oh give thanks to the LORD, for He is good!
[Verse 3]
C F
We were fools in our rebellion, with our hunger strike of pride
Am7 G
We were sick and growing closer to the death we should have died
C F
Then He heard of our con-dition, and He called us by our names
C G Am G
And the God of glory took a-way our shame!
[Chorus]
C E7 F C
Oh give thanks to the LORD for His love endures for-ever!
Am C D7 G7
We were wandering and lost, and our Father brought us home
C E7 F C
To a safe dwelling place, to a feast of joy and laughter.
Am F C
Oh give thanks to the LORD, for He is good!
[Verse 4]
C F
We were far out on the ocean, making wealth and chasing dreams;
Am7 G
But the waves of great destruction brought us tremb’ling to our knees.
C F
Then we cried like drunken sailers to the only one who hears,
C G Am G
And the God of comfort took away our tears.
[Chorus]
C E7 F C
Oh give thanks to the LORD for His love endures for-ever!
Am C D7 G7
We were wandering and lost, and our Father brought us home
C E7 F C
To a safe dwelling place, to a feast of joy and laughter.
Am F C
Oh give thanks to the LORD, for He is good!
