The First Time
Mercyme
Intro:
C# G# F# F#
Verse 1:
C#
Day after day
G#
I try to explain You
F#
Like I can contain You
In so many words
C#
You are the ocean
G#
And I'm on the shore line
F#
Thinking I know You
Like You could be learned
Pre-Chorus:
F# G#
It's so amazing
F# G# F#
That You'd ever save me
Chorus:
C#
I thought I knew You're face
G#
I thought I tasted grace
F#
But I have never felt anything close to this
C#
Just when I'd seen it all
G#
New mercy breaks the door
F#
With my eyes opened wide
C#
It feels like the first time, first time
G# F#
It feels like the first time, first time
Verse 2:
C#
After all of my searching
G#
All of my reaching
F#
I'm left with nothing
Nothing of worth
C#
You treasure the broken
G#
Over and over
F#
Give me a hope that can never be earned
PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS
Bridge:
C#
And You're beauty, no eye has seen
G#
Your majesty, overwhelm me
F# C#
Your love for me is healing, You're God
Chorus:
C#
I thought I knew You're face
G#
I thought I tasted grace
F#
But I have never felt anything close to this
C#
Just when I'd seen it all
G#
New mercy breaks the door
F#
With my eyes opened wide
C#
I feel alive for the first time, first time
G# F#
It feels like the first time, first time
C# G#
I can see for the first time, first time
F# C#
Just like the first time
