[Intro]
D A  Bm  G 
D A  Bm  G 
 
[Verse 1]
                          D    
I approach the throne of glory, 
                      Bm
nothing in my hands I bring
                     A        
But the promise of acceptance, 
                         D A Bm G
from a good and gracious King
 
[Verse 2]
                       D     
I will give to You my burden, 
                         Bm
as You give to me Your strength
                            A      
Come and fill me with Your Spirit, 
                       D
as I sing to You this praise
 
[Chorus]
                D/F#    G     
You deserve the greater glory, 
                     D
overcome, I lift my voice
                        A      
To the King in need of nothing, 
                 D
empty handed I rejoice
                         G    
You deserve the greater glory, 
                    Bm
overcome with joy I sing
                   A       
By Your love I am accepted, 
                            D
You’re a good and gracious King
 
[Verse 3]
         G                   D     
O what grace that You would see me, 
                          Bm
as Your child and as Your friend
                     A      
Safe, secure in You forever, 
                      D
I pour out my praise again
 
[Chorus]
                D/F#    G     
You deserve the greater glory, 
                     D
overcome, I lift my voice
                        A      
To the King in need of nothing, 
                 D
empty handed I rejoice
                         G    
You deserve the greater glory, 
                    Bm
overcome with joy I sing
                   A       
By Your love I am accepted, 
                           Bm
You’re a good and gracious King
