Hey there friends! So, I am challenging myself and resolving to start recording and sharing some of my favorite worship songs everyday and write and release a new song a week as well. I am kind of using May 1st as a quasi New Year (the Biblical Jewish New Year just started the other day). Ever feel like you just need a fresh start at life? Start over with a clean slate? Yea me too. These days I’m looking for any reason I can to “turn over a new leaf” and start fully living the life I was meant to.

Here is this amazing worship song I learned today:

Sing along with the lyrics below (musician instructions below):

JESUS WE LOVE YOU

VERSE 1

Old things have passed away
Your love has stayed the same
Your constant grace remains the cornerstone

Things that we thought were dead
Are breathing in life again
You cause your Son to shine on darkest nights

PRE CHORUS

For all that you’ve done we will pour out our love
This will be our anthem song

CHORUS

Jesus we love you
Oh how we love you
You are the one our hearts adore

INTERLUDE

Our hearts adore (Last time end on )

VERSE 2

The hopeless have found their hope
The orphans now have a home
All that was lost has found its place in you

You lift our weary head
You make us strong instead
You took these rags and made us beautiful

BRIDGE

Our affection, our devotion poured out on the feet of Jesus
Our affection, our devotion poured out on the feet of Jesus
Our affection, our devotion poured out on the feet of Jesus
Our affection, our devotion poured out on the feet of Jesus

This version is in a more singable key for me (and perhaps you) than the original – I had to experiment a little and landed on the key of D. I put the capo on 7 instead of 4 as they do in the original.

Musicians! Here is the chord chart for this song relative to capo – useful wherever you may capo this song (at 4 for original or 7 for this version): JESUS WE LOVE YOU Bethel (key C)

Or for bass/piano if you are committing to key of D: JESUS WE LOVE YOU Bethel (key D)

I do like to play the D chord like this: X54030 – it has a nice ring to it
