INTRO: Em Em D/F# G G D/F# Em
Em                      D/F#    G
The sun was setting over Avalon

Bm   C                                  D         G
        The last time we stood in the West

Em                              D/F#    G
Suffering long time angels enraptured by Blake

                Bm      C                       D       G
Burn out the dross, innocence captured again

Em               D/F#           G
Standing on the beach at sunset

Bm    C                         D   G
        All the boats keep moving slow

Em                D/F#    G
In the glory of the flashing light

Bm    C                 D       G           G  D/F# Em D/F#
        In the evening's glow        {change fast}
CHORUS
G               C       G       C       Em
When will I ever learn to live in God?

           C    G
When will I ever learn?

G               C       G          C     Em
He gives me everything I need and more

           C    G
When will I ever learn?

Em                  D/F#  G
You brought it to my attention

Bm   C                      D       G
        That everything was made in God

Em                        D/F#          G
Down through centuries of great writings and paintings

Bm   C                D   G
        Everything was in God

Em                           D/F#       G
Seen through architecture of great cathedrals

Bm   C                        D     G
        Down through the history of time

Em              D/F#    G
Is and was in the beginning

Bm   C                      D    G
        And ever more shall ever be

When will I ever learn?

When will I ever learn?
BRIDGE
C               D/F#
What ever it takes to fulfill His mission

C                       G
That is the way we must go

C                       D/F#
But you've got to do it in your way

C                     D
Tear down the old, bring up the new
ORGAN SOLO WITH CHORUS CHORDS
Em                         D/F#  G
And up on the hillside it's quiet

Bm    C                                  D           G
        Where the shepherd is tending his sheep

And over the mountains and the valleys

Bm   C                          D   G
        And the countryside is so green

Standing on the highest hill with a sense of wonder

Bm    C                            D          G
        You can see everything is made in God

Em                      D/F#   G
Head back down the roadside

Bm    C                 D       G
        And give thanks for it all
