The First Time Chords & Lyrics - Mercyme

[INTRO]
[C#] [G#] [F#] [F#]

[VERSE 1]
[C#]Day after day
[G#]I try to explain You
[F#]Like I can contain You

In so many words
[C#]You are the ocean
[G#]And I'm on the shore line
[F#]Thinking I know You

Like You could be learned

[PRE-CHORUS]
[F#] It's s[G#]o amazing
[F#] That Y[G#]ou'd ever s[F#]ave me

[CHORUS]
[C#]I thought I knew You're face
[G#]I thought I tasted grace
[F#]But I have never felt anything close to this
[C#]Just when I'd seen it all
[G#]New mercy breaks the door
[F#]With my eyes opened wide
[C#]It feels like the first time, first time
[G#] It feels like the first time, first [F#]time

[VERSE 2]
[C#]After all of my searching
[G#]All of my reaching
[F#]I'm left with nothing

Nothing of worth
[C#]You treasure the broken
[G#]Over and over
[F#]Give me a hope that can never be earned

[PRE-CHORUS]

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]
[C#]And You're beauty, no eye has seen
[G#]Your majesty, overwhelm me
[F#]Your love for me is healing, You're [C#]God

[CHORUS]

[C#]I thought I knew You're face
[G#]I thought I tasted grace
[F#]But I have never felt anything close to this
[C#]Just when I'd seen it all
[G#]New mercy breaks the door
[F#]With my eyes opened wide
[C#]I feel alive for the first time, first time
[G#] It feels like the first time, first [F#]time
[C#]I can see for the first time, first t[G#]ime
Jus[F#]t like the first time [C#]
