E            C#m                A                   
There are times in the darkness I have forgotten
        E          C#m      E          A
How the LORD of my life, HE carries my pain
       E             C#m                 A
when I bring HIM the wrong that tries to consume me
   E                 C#m    F#m
HE forgives me, unmeasured again and again
    B         A  C#m  E  B
And calls it even, 
            A    C#m  B  F#m  B
HE calls it even.

Verse 2

        E          C#m             A
When HE adds up my progress it all comes to nothin'
       E             C#m           B           A
But HE leads me with mercy in that place in my road
        E       C#m                 A
Then HE reaches beyond bringin' me closer
           C#m                    B
And never counting the miles that I missed the goal
                A    C#m  B             A    C#m  B
And HE calls it even,       HE calls it even.

May I bring him gifts and HE gives me grace

I bring HIM confusion, HE sets me in place

Verse 3

B      E           C#m              A
When I give HIM my best it's all or nothin'
         E              C#m               E         A
But it's black and it's white and there's no middle ground
         E         C#m                  A
Will the sum of my life be all that he wanted
        E           C#m            B
HE will balance the scales when HE hands me my crown
             A    C#m  E  B
And calls it even,
