Verse 1

My[D#m] heart h[G#m]as known th[E]e winters
  And my f[B]eet have known the snow
  Bu[D#m]t mine ey[G#m]es have seen the glory
Of [E]a seed b[B]egin to grow
There [D#m]is a time[G#m] to uproot,[E] darling
  But most [B]days just hold on tight
For[D#m] there’s a ti[G#m]me for darkness, honey
But[E] dawn will alway[B]s beat the night
B G#m B G#m
E B E B

Verse 2

So[F#]metimes[G#m] death will co[E]me calling
   B
When you’ve been good and warned
   And [F#]other ti[G#m]mes its cold ha[E]nds will cradle
Drea[F#]ms yet [B]to be born
There i[F#]s a t[G#m]ime to danc[E]e on sorrow
And a time t[B]o kiss her cheek
There i[F#]s a ti[G#m]me to mourn [E]in silence
But jus[F#]tice aches to[B] hear you speak

Chorus

An[C#m]d I don’t kno[G#m]w the end,[E] or [B]tomorrow’s story
Bu[C#m]t I have fou[G#m]nd the one who [E]gives me rest
An[C#m]d I will ma[G#m]ke my bed [E]in [B]His promises
  [C#m]For He h[G#m]olds true when n[E]othing’s left
When nothi[B]ng’s left

Verse 3

There i[F#]s a time[G#m] when laugh[E]ter will echo
  Through your[B] halls of peace
But wa[F#]r is know[G#m]n to chang[E]e your locks
   And [F#]carry off th[B]e family keys
There is a ti[G#m]me for heali[E]ng and pain
  A time for dro[B]ught and a t ime for rain
There i[F#]s a ti[G#m]me for eve[E]rything
  Unt[F#]il we crow[G#m]n the [E]risen King
Until [F#]we crown the [B]risen King

Chorus

An[C#m]d I don’t kno[G#m]w the end,[E] or [B]tomorrow’s story
  [C#m]But I have f[G#m]ound the one w[E]ho gives me rest
An[C#m]d I will ma[G#m]ke my bed[E] in [B]His promises
Fo[C#m]r He hold[G#m]s true when noth[E]ing’s left

Bridge

So[E] crown Him in your mourning
An[F#]d crown Him in your laughter
An[G#m]d crown Him when it [B]all turns dark
  [E]Crown Him when you bury
  F#
  And crown Him when you marry
An[G#m]d crown Him when your fa[B]ith finds a spark
[E]Crown Him for He’s faithful
  [F#]And crown Him for He’s worthy
An[G#m]d crown Him for [B]He is good
[E]Crown Him for His promises
  [F#]Cut through the blindness
  [G#m]Of children that have [B]barely understood
Th[E]e beauty that has come
And [F#]the beauty yet to come
  An[G#m]d the beauty that is you[B]rs and that is mine
And t[E]hat death produces life
And t[F#]hat we are made alive
By t[G#m]he King who paints b[B]eauty with time
By t[E]he King wh[F#]o pain[G#m]ts beauty with time
By t[E]he King wh[F#]o paints [B]beauty with time

Chorus

And[B] I don’t know [G#m]the end, [B]or tomorrow’s story
   G#m   E
But I have found the one who gives me rest
And I will[G#m] make my bed[B] in His promises
  For H[G#m]e holds true whe[E]n nothing’s left
When nothi[B]ng’s left
