A song about grace, so we don't forget: 'Lord we have grown cold to the wine and the bread/ Your body so broken, the blood that You shed/ We take it for granted, become cavalier/ don't let us forget what we once held so dear' CCLI # 4911441

Contemporary hymns and new worship music
CONTEMPORARY HYMNS AND NEW WORSHIP MUSIC These are acoustic worship songwriting demos with chords sheets. IF YOU'RE A SINGER, BAND, OR WORSHIP LEADER/PASTOR, FEEL FREE TO USE these modern hymns and worship songs in live settings, and to reproduce lyric sheets for Power Point, overhead transparency, or whatever you use. THE MODERN HYMN MOVEMENT: The recent explosion of contemporary hymns and inroads made into churches by Indelible Grace, Stuart Townend, Keith and Kristyn Getty and other modern hymn writers has done wonders for reminding us of the relevance of old hymns and turning again to new hymns crafted in old literary patterns that expressed theological truths in ways that many modern song-constructs cannot follow. I work in this tradition, writing deeply theological worship songs that can be adapted for various musical genres, while presenting the gospel in the depth that hymns are famous for. Click the "Lyrics/story tab next to each song on my MP3 music page for chords, as well as a list of themes/liturgical settings for each song and CCLI #s. YOU CAN ALSO DOWNLOAD OVERHEAD TRANSFER SHEETS, chord sheets, and lyrics to some of these songs by looking up my name in the Artist List of these two sites: Just send me a note letting me know who/where you are -- I'd like to know! .

The three verses are in 11-11-11-11 hymn meter. The chorus is unmetered and the bridge, of course, is "Amazing Grace."
Lyrics
G C D The favor of God cannot be bought or won G C D But it flows so free through the blood of the Son. C G We're filthy with pride; He is perfect and pure. C G C D His grace reaches down, makes our election sure. D C G Pardon! Forgiveness! Sacrificial love! C D G That's grace and it's always enough. G C D Lord we have grown cold to the wine and the bread, G C D You're body, so battered, the blood that You shed. C G We take it for granted, become cavalier, C G C D Don't let us forget what we once held so dear: repeat chorus G C D Now thankful for grace, for salvation so sweet, G C D We take to the world and the nearest dark street, C G Invoking the light and proclaiming the Way, C G C D Transformed by God's love and in love with God's grace repeat chorus bridge: G C G Amazing grace how sweet the sound D That saved a wretch like me ... repeat chorus CCLI # 4911441
