The Face of Love


(Verse 1)
    D    G  D       G           Em   D  A
The face of love is gazing down up - on us
   D          G   D         G        Em7  Asus4  A
Compassion of our Saviour, affection of a Friend
   G              F#7      E/F#  F#7   Bsus4  Bm   A  G
He didn't come to bring us con - dem - na  -  tion
            D   F#7 Bm   Gmaj7  Asus4 A7  D
But to pour out his life un  -  to    the end.


(Verse 2)
    D  G   D       G             Em D A
And in his eyes we see the tears of anguish
    D        G   D          G       Em7  Asus4  A
The overwhelming sorrow, oh how can we begin
   G              F#7      E/F#  F#7   Bsus4  Bm   A  G
To understand the depth of des - o  -  la  -  tion
             D    F#7 Bm Gmaj7  Asus4  A7   D
When for our sake the sinless   be  -  came sin?


(Verse 3)
    D    G   D        G             Em D  A
But from his mouth we hear no words of protest
   D            G  D          G    Em7   Asus4  A
He bears it all in silence, authority is his.
   G                    F#7     E/F#  F#7  Bsus4 Bm   A  G
He prays "Forgive them, Father" when  they mock  him.
              D  F#7 Bm  Gmaj7  Asus4 A7   D
How can there be a   greater    love  than this?


(Verse 4)
    D    G  D       G           Em   D  A
The face of love is gazing down upon us
   D           G  D             G         Em7     Asus4  A
In triumph "It is finished", he cries the victory won	
   G                 F#7      E/F#  F#7   Bsus4  Bm   A  G
In Jesus' death, the curse of death de  - feat - ed
           D     F#7 Bm    Gmaj7  Asus4 A7   D
In his new life, e - ter - nal    life  be - gun.
