Biography:
Michael Card (born April 11, 1957 in Madison, Tennessee) is a Contemporary Christian music (CCM) artist who couples folk-style melodies and instrumentation with lyrics that stem from intensive study of the Bible. This perhaps is most brought out and seen, in his very popular thought provoking song 'Scandalon' - while on a softer level of feelings from the heart came the song 'Abba Father'. Since his debut in 1981, he has sold more than 4 million albums and has written 19 number one singles.

Am Dm
The Lord God said when time was full

And give birth to the Promise

For a thousand years the dreamers dreamt
G E
And hoped to see His love
Am Dm
The Promise showed their wildest dreams

Had simply not been wild enough

Am G Am
Had simply not been wild enough

G E
But came into our hearts to live

What more did He have to give

What more could God have given, tell me
Am G Am
What more did He have to give
