Chorus: 
D
We are the salt 
G          D
We are the light
D                    A         D
We are the souls You have made right
     D                   G         D 
With thankful hearts our praise we sing
   Em       D/F#     G          Asus --- A 
To You, our Brother, Friend and King!

Verse 1:
    A
You love us all 
    D
You know our name 
    A           D
How can we ever be the same? 
     F#m             Bm
Your grace and mercy all around
    G                 Asus           --- A
And what was lost has now been found.

Verse 2: 
To all who hunger, You are Bread 
And by Your life our souls are fed 
To those who thirst, Your Waters flow 
Your Word is all we need to know.

Verse 3: 
Into our world You came by birth 
A Brother to the scum of the earth 
And for our lives You hung in pain 
To pay the price, then rise again!
