Notes
The capo makes the guitar arpeggio in the beginning really easy to play.
I'll tab it in version two but an intermediate guitarist should be able
to find it from the recording. This version is the one at:

As always, please rate my work.

Thanks for the comment on the formatting. This is one of the songs that I feel needs to be done really close to the recorded arrangement. The reason for Hillsong's success isn't an accident. They know exactly what they're doing regarding pauses and little interludes. The purpose is to give the worshiper time to process what they've just said. The quiet moments intensify the experience and allow the exceptional lyrics to sink in. I often see people crying in the congregation when we do this one and we are very careful with our playing and dynamics so as not to get in the way of this truly exceptional worship song.
