[Em]You brought it to my[D/F#] atten[G]tion
[Bm]     [C]   That everything was [D]made in [G]God
[Em]Down through centuries of [D/F#]great writings[G] and paintings
[Bm]     [C]   Everything was[D] in [G]God

[Em]Seen through architecture of [D/F#]great cathe[G]drals
[Bm]     [C]   Down through the histo[D]ry of [G]time
[Em]Is and was in th[D/F#]e beginn[G]ing
[Bm]     [C]   And ever more shall [D]ever [G]be

{section: Bridge}
[C]What ever it tak[D/F#]es to fulfill His mission
[C]That is the way we must [G]go

[C]Tear down the old, bri[D]ng up the new

[Em]And up on the hillside it's[D/F#] quiet[G]
[Bm]      [C]  Where the shepherd is tending his[D] sheep      [G]

[Bm]     [C]   And the countryside is s[D]o gr[G]een

[Em]Standing on the highest [D/F#]hill with a sense o[G]f wonder
[Bm]      [C]  You can see everything is m[D]ade in God [G]

[Bm]      [C]  And give thanks [D]for it a[G]ll
