Bathshebas Song

[Prelude]
 
Bm                                   G
 There was a time when I just couldn’t understand
Em                                      A
How God could love this man the son of Jesse
Bm                              G
  And I asked why a sinner like him was set apart
            Em                           G
It took some time to know why he is called
                   F#
the man after God's heart

moon and stars
