Chords for New Manna Youth Choir - Mephibosheth

[C] This song talks [A] about Mephibosheth who was just a crippled old [Am] boy
In a mess in the land of [D] no bread a land of [G] heartaches
Until the king sent for him one day and brought him started [C] blessing him the song says
Mephibosheth please accept [Am] the invitation.
I've made all the [D] preparations
And when I [G] was singing and when we were singing [Em] and I was preaching on Monday that hit me
[C] That a lot of young people [D] hesitate to come to Jesus because they're trying to figure [G] out how's it all gonna work out?
How am I gonna deal with this and [C] this and this and I told him that the Lord's already made all those preparations
He's [Am] got all that figured out and I just thought of brother [D] Charlie brother Charlie [G] didn't even know there was a Victory Baptist [Em] College
Last year [E] he didn't know he didn't know anything about all that.
He [G] didn't know that he was going to go to Christian school
[G] He didn't know any of those things, but [C] God had all that stuff already
He had this whole year already mapped out for brother Charlie.
He [Am] just needed him to run to [D] Jesus
He just needed him to accept [G] an amazing happen.
I praise the Lord for that.

You let [Am] it speak to you now you think about when Jesus [D] sent for you the [G] Holy Spirit came to wherever you were
Pulled you to Jesus.
Hope Jesus sent for you _ _ _ _ _ _ _ in a place [Am] called _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ His name was [Am] Mephibosheth
_ _ _ The [D] son of _ [A] _
Saul
_ _ He was trying [C] to survive
_ _ [Am] Since Jonathan [D] and Saul were slain
[G] That's all you do by the way away from the king [Em] you just try to provide that's all there is [C] to that life
And each lonely [A] night was spent in [Am] fear of what another day
[G] Would be.
Listen now the good king.
Then [Am] one day King David said
_ _ [D] There is one thing I'd like [G] to do
_ Is there [Am] one of the house of Saul
_ _ [D] Someone I could show my [G] kindness to _
Someone set down in Lord of [Bm] all

[B] That a king could [D] ever love _ [G] a king
_ _ [C] _ _

Living in [Am] Lodibar
_ _ Where [D] there's no comfort for a troubled soul
_ [G]
Just a place full [Am] of broken [E] hearts
_ _ [D]
Never [B] knowing what the future [G] holds _
But now that I've met the king
[Am] There's nothing [D] like his [F#m] love for me
[Em] And now I'm part of the family
[D] Since someone came and knocked upon [Am] my door
[D] With this message from [G] the king

[A] Forever pledge [D] all tears to me
Hey listen you know sometimes [G] people get right and [Em] never go back
Isn't that a blessing
I [D] praise God for the day I went to Jesus
[G] When I was 21
And I stayed there I haven't been perfect
