Overshadowed

    Am  E7      Am         Dm
How desolate my life would be
    Am                E7         Am
How dark and drear my nights and days
          E7     Am      Dm
If Jesus' face I did not see
   C        D7          G9
To brighten all earth's ways

Chorus:
Gaug/B C                   F6     Ddim7
I'm    overshadowed by His mighty love
Am/G          Dm6   Gaug  C
Love eternal, changeless, pure
Gaug/B C            F6     Dm
Overshadowed by His mighty love
Am/G          Dm6 Gaug  C
Rest is mine, serene, secure
              C7          F6
He died to ransom me from sin
   D9                      G7
He lives to keep me day by day
Gaug/B     C               F6     Ddim7
I'm    overshadowed by His mighty love
Am/G                Dm6 Gaug C
Love that brightens all my   way


With burdened heart I wandered long
By grief and unbelief distressed
But now I sing faith's happy song
In Christ my Saviour I am blessed

Now judgment fears no more alarm
I dread not death, nor Satan's power
The world for me haslost it's charm
God's grace sustains me every hour
