[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][D][E][A][D][G]

[Verse 1]
So many
[C]years I cried ‘cause my [G]soul denied
That [C]He would save a wretch [G]like me
So full of [C]gloom and dread
that I [G]hung my head
I [A]wouldn't claim the victory
[D]Then one day[G] His love
like a winged dove
Settled down upon [C]my life
And I realized he had [G]authorized
My [D]ticket to paradis[G]e

[Verse 2]
On the [G]authority of the Holy Word
I [C]rise up and take my [G]stand
I'm a blood bought child
of the living [E]God
Who [A]is the Great I [D]Am
I'm an [Dm]heir to all that [G]heaven holds
And [C]no principal[A]ity
Can ever [G]take [F]away my [E]royal crown
Given [A]on His [D]author[G] ity
[Gm]It's a [C]mystery why He

[Verse 3]
[G]came to me
Why [C]He would choose me for His [G]own
Why He [C]pulled me out
of the [G]lake of doubt
Set me [A]right beside His [D]throne
Why he [G]guaranteed,
with His seal decreed
My inheritance [C]by right
I'm His favored child,
and that [G]makes me smile
I'm the [D]center of His de[G]light

[Verse 4]
On the [G]authority of the Holy Word
I [C]rise up and take my [G]stand
I'm a blood bought child
of the living [E]God
Who [A]is the Great I [D]Am
[Dm]I'm an heir to all that [G]heaven holds
And [C]no principal[A]ity
Can ever [G]take [F]away my [E]royal crown
Given [A]on His [D]au thor[G]ity
On [Bb]the a[C]u thority

[Verse 5]
of the Holy Word
I [F]rise up and take my [C]stand
I'm a blood bought child
of the living [Am]God
Who [D]is the Great I [G]Am
I'm an [Gm]heir to all that [C]heaven holds
And [F]no principal[D]ity
Can ever [C]take [Bb]away my [A]royal crown
Given [D]on His [G]au thor[C]ity
I'm an [Gm]heir to all that

[Verse 6]
[C]heaven holds
And [F]no prin[D]cipality
Can ever [C]take [Bb]away my [A]royal crown
Given [D]on His [G]au [C]thority
