1. The past that held re-gret
                    G
   O-ver my head is gone
                           C
   These chains are ash-es now
                          Em
   That once were rust-ed on

   Un-til Your hand reached down
                       Em
   Pulled me out of my grave

                     G
   So I could be set free

   And now the scales are gone
                         Em 
   My eyes can fi-nal-ly see
                          C
   I'll tell the world of all
