Steven Curtis Chapman – The Invitation (Guitar)

E2                         Bsus
In the Palace in the land of mercy

    C#m         Bsus           A2
the king looked down from his throne.

E2                                 Bsus
He saw the sick and the homeless and hungry

                  C#m        Bsus   A2
He saw me lost and without hope.

F#m7                       G#m7         F#m7               C#m
And moved with compassion, he sent out his only son.

F#m7    G#m7         A2    Bsus
with the invitation to come.

C#m   Bsus   E2         C#m Bsus         E2
This is your Invitation, Come just the way you are.

             C#m     Bsus        E2                            
Come find what your soul has been longing for.

      E2          F#m
Come find your peace, come join the feast A2 Am

              C#m Bsus A2
Come in, this is your Invitation.

C#m      Bsus      A2
So I stood outside the Gates and trembled, in my Rags of unworthyness.

E2                  Bsus                               C#m         Bsus
Afraid to even stand at a distance in the presence of holiness.

F#m7           G#m7        F#m7                            C#m7
But just as I truned to Go, the Gates swung open wide.

F#m7                                G#m7         A2          Bsus
And the King and his only Son, they invited me inside.

F#m7                  G#m7          F#m7                    C#m
So Now will you come with me to where the Gates swing open wide

F#m7                      G#m7              A2            Bsus
And the king and his only Son are Inviting us inside.

C#m   Bsus   E2         C#m Bsus         E2
This is your Invitation, Come just the way you are.

             C#m     Bsus        E2                            
Come find what your soul has been longing for.

      E2          F#m
Come find your peace, come join the feast A2 Am

              C#m Bsus A2
Come in, this is your Invitation. 

C#m   Bsus    A2
This is your invitation

Am          E2
This is the invitation
