I've had this song on my mind for so long. It's called Aslan by Kendall Payne. There's not a lot of words, but the ones that she chooses give a very concise description of who Aslan/God is.

Aslan
Kendall Payne

Verse 1:
G D Em
Don't stop your crying on my account C Em D
A frightening lion, no doubt
G D




He's not safe, no he's not safe Em
Are you tempted now to run away? C Em D
The King above all Kings is coming down

Chorus: C D G D/F# Em
But He won't say the words you wish that he would C D G D/F# Em
Oh, he don't do the deeds you know that He could C D G D/F# Em
He won't think the thoughts you think that He should C D G D Em D/F# G D Em
But He is good, He is good

Verse 2:
I know you're thirsty, the water is free
But I should warn you, it costs everything
Well, He's not fair, no He's not fair
When He fixes what's beyond repair
And graces everyone that don't deserve

Chorus: C D G D/F# Em
But He won't say the words you wish that he would C D G D/F# Em
Oh, he don't do the deeds you know that He could C D G D/F# Em
He won't think the thoughts you think that He should C D Am Em Bm C
But He is good, He is good

Bridge:
Am Em Bm C
No one knows Him whom eyes never seen
Am Em Bm C Bm
No, I don't know Him but He knows me C Bm C G D Em D/F# G D Em
He knows me, He knows me

Lay down your layers, shed off your skin
But without His incision, you can't enter in
He cuts deep, yeah He cuts deep
When the risk is great and the talk is cheap
But never leaves a wounded one behind

  • Great cover of a great song! I've been trying to find chords for this song for about 6 months now... where did you find them? Or did you just figure it out by ear?

  • i have no idea where you can get the chords for it. i just kind of did it by ear. i played it in the key of G and just capo'd. if you really want them i could probably write them down for you and send them to you?

  • This song came up in my Pandora mix today and I loved it! I wanted to share it on Facebook with friends and family so I looked it up on YouTube and found your cover. I think I like your version better. :-) Have you thought about making an album?

  • yeah, actually that's where i discovered the song as well! but i didn't get a chance to see who sang it, so i had to wait forever before it came back around. haha! an album. um, not really; i don't really have the connections for that. i mostly just lead the worship at my church and hope that people are able to see past me and see instead who God is. thanks though! = )

see all
