Portrait Of Christ chords

[VERSE 1]

Here I sit gazing o[Ab]ut through the window
Dreaming of a l[Fm]ife spent at your side [Bbm]
Where our joys and t[Eb]ears for the rest of our years
Are united in love and in [Ab]life

[CHORUS]

To[Ab]day we embark on a journey
To the place where we two become [Bbm]one
You give me your hand and tog[Eb]ether we stand
Taking a vow before [Ab]God

[VERSE 2]

[Ab]God in His infinite wisdom
Depicting His [Fm]Spirit at work [Bbm]
Chose marriage to play a p[Eb]icture portray
Of Jesus Himself with His C[Ab]hurch

[VERSE 3]

[Ab]Christ as the head of the Body
By Whom are all things contr[Bbm]ived
Redeemed His wife when He [Eb]laid down His life
Making her one with G[Ab]od

[VERSE 4]

[Ab]So is the way of a man
In taking a [Fm]wife to his [Bbm]side
He gives up his[Eb] own, the two become one
And he lays himself down for his [Ab]bride.

[VERSE 5]

[Ab]Marriage- a lovely reflection
Of Christ Himself with His[Bbm] Bride
Who purchased His wife with His [Eb]own sacrifice
[Ab]Washing her white in His blood

[VERSE 6]

[Ab]God in His merciful kindness
In a picture of [Fm]unfailing [Bbm]love
Gave life unto [Eb]man through the death of His Son
Uniting the two into [Ab]one

[VERSE 7]

[Ab]Marriage – God’s precious depiction
Of salvation and of eterna[Bbm]l life
He took on our sin redeemed us to [Eb]Him
[Ab]With His own precious blood He bought life

[CHORUS]

To[Ab]day we embark on a journey
To the place where we two become [Bbm]one
You give me your hand and tog[Eb]ether we stand
Taking a vow before [Ab]God
