Benediction
Played by Timothy James Meaney


G                             D         Em
My friends may you grow in grace
          C                               D            G-D
And in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour
G                             D         Em
My friends may you grow in grace
         C                          D      G
and in the knowledge of Jesus Christ

Chorus: To God be the glory, now and forever
now and forever, amen
To God be the glory, now and forever, now and forever amen

Chorus Chords and Verse chords are the same
For those of you who know "Stairway to Heaven",
use that pickin' style. it is as follows,
pick the D and hi E string together with thumb and ring
finger. Then pick the G,B and hi E strings in that order
with Pointer, Middle Man, and Ring Finger. Confused?
strumming is ok too.

where did this song come from? I use it a lot in my music sets, but have never known who to give the credit to.
It's a very powerful song to end with. Someone once told me that it was from a band called Raze the Praise, but they're no longer together. If you know who wrote this, I would love to know.

This song is by Timothy James Meany, a local Christian artist in Seattle. I remember singing this song at summer camp around the camp fire when I was a kid, and then a couple years ago I was hired to run the sound at one of Tim's concerts (I had no idea who he was), and he played this song. I had spent the better part of a decade wondering about the song's author, and it was at that concert that he explained how the Lord inspired him to write it. To this day it's still one of the best worship songs I've ever heard.
