The Most Important Thing

[VERSE 1]
Am                   G            F         F
The words You chose to speak
Am            G          F             Em7
They were simple, deep and true
Am               G                   F         F
Taught us to turn the other cheek
Am           G                   F            
If we’d only listened to You…
        Em7                        Am G  F   Em7
You would have seen us through  [x2]
 
[CHORUS 1]
       F              G               Am
But we made weapons of war
F                 G                      Am
Traded our plowshares for swords
              F               G       Am
Now to You, Lord, I will yield
        F               G               Am
Cuz You’re my sword and shield!
 
[VERSE 2]
Am               G      F         F
The Father’s only son
        Am        G                       F       Em7
You did what only You could do
Am               G                   F       F
Now I’m no longer on the run
Am           G                       F          
My life is now completely new
              Em7                Am G  F   Em7
And it’s all because of You  [x2]
 
[BRIDGE]
Dm                  G                      C     Am
Ain’t nothin’ any of us  can earn
Dm                      G                            C         Am
Wood, hay and stubble is gonna burn
      Dm                    G     C           Am       
We didn’t get what we deserved
              F             G                     Am
I’m just glad You put first things first
                      Dm          E     Am
Though Your yoke was torturing
                    F          G          Am
You did the most important thing
                   F                G            Am
That’s why You’re my Lord and King
 
[CHORUS 2]
F                G               Am
You’re my Savior and Lord
        F           G                 Am
The one I’ve long waited for
             F               G                 Am
Now to Your will, Lord, I will yield
        F               G                     Am
Cuz You’re my sword and my shield!
        F           G                         Am
And by Your stripes I’ve been healed
 
[OUTRO]
      Am                G             F       F
To You Lord my sword I'll bring
F                G                   Am
You’re my Lord and my King
Am         G                  F       F
In one accord we will sing
      F         G                Am
I’ll hide beneath Your wings
      Am              G          F       F
Oh death where is your sting?
             F              G                 Am
To the old rugged cross I will cling
         Am              G         F         F
Your love cut my puppet strings
             F           G                   Am
Got me thru the toughest of things
          Am            G            F       F   
Jesus You’re my Lord and King
                    Em7                                   Am   G    F  F
You did the most - the most important thing
       Em7                   Am   G    F  F     Em7                   Am
The most important thing             The most important thing
