Key of F

Capo on 3rd Fret

 

                      Bm          G            A                   D

Response: Never forget the deeds of the Lord.

 

           G               A                      D

Give heed, my people, to my teaching;

                   Bm               E                     Asus2  A

turn your ear to the words of my mouth.

         G                  A               Bm

I will open my mouth in a parable

             Em                Em7                  Asus2  A

and reveal hidden lessons of the past.

 

                      Bm          G            A                   D

Response: Never forget the deeds of the Lord.

 

                   Bm                                           E

When he slew them then they would seek him,

     Bm           E                  A

return and seek him in earnest.

                      Bm                       Bm7                  G

They would remember that God was their rock,

  Em                   Em7                Asus2  A

God the Most High their redeemer.

 

                      Bm          G            A                   D

Response: Never forget the deeds of the Lord.

 

                Bm                                               E

But the words they spoke were mere flattery;

          Bm        E                       A

they lied to him with their lips.

                 Bm                       Bm7            G

For their hearts were not truly with him;

  Em                   Em7                  Asus2  A

they were not faithful to his covenant.

 

                      Bm          G            A                   D

Response: Never forget the deeds of the Lord.

 

        G               A                 D

Yet he who is full of compassion

       Bm                       E                          Asus2  A

forgave them their sin and spared them.

      G               A                  Bm

So often he held back his anger

            Em                      Em7              Asus2  A

when he might have stirred up his rage.

 

                      Bm          G            A                   D

Response: Never forget the deeds of the Lord.
