Feb2007 Welcome to the Song Exchange.
Song Exchange is a website for the sharing of new Christian praise and worship songs. The aim is to showcase simple downloadable recordings of new songs along with a text file of the lyrics and chords. If you are interested in contributing to the site you'll need to become an administrator so you can upload your own material. Contact me if you have some sounds you think would suit this new forum - God Bless - Eroy

Must be a better way

2/14/2007 at 2:07 PM

Haven't got time at the moment to look into it but it would be better if I could attach pdf or word files to the site rather than inserting the lyrics and chords into a 'blog' format. The problem is that the chord placements are getting changed. I manually adjusted this first blog and when I posted it, the chord placements were simplified as you can see below - making it harder to follow the music. If anyone has any ideas - let me know - Eroy.

This once was a Land

This Once was a Land (Capo 4)
V1
C Em/G
This once was a land, where steeples and bells
F Am Am G
Would draw all the people to worship Your name
C Em/G
This once was a land where everyone knew
F Am Am G
The story of Jesus and said prayers to You

F Am Am G
Now here is our land, broken and used
F Am G
A people desperate without You

Chorus:
Am F C G
Let your wind blow over this land
Am F C G
Let your warm breathe of life breath again
F G Am
Breath vitality, Setting people free
F G (F Am Am G Em Am G)
Let your wind blow over our land

V2
C Em/G
This once was a land where ships carried men
F Am Am G
Who shared with the nations your message of truth
C Em/G
This once was a land where people would die
F Am Am G
The love of their Saviour was better than life

F Am Am G
Now here is our land, we’ve gone our own way
F Am G
We’re coming back to You again

Bridge:
F Am G
We’re on our knees once again
F Am G
Come heal our land, come heal our land
