       E              C#m
Under cloudy skies we live our lives
            A       E/G#         F#m7sus /B
Struggling day to day as trials arise
      E                 C#m
Only when the light of Christ breaks through
              A    E/G#      F#m7
Do we find exception to this rule

Chorus:
        E                    B C#m        A E/G#  F#m7
Dear exception, please come soon, I miss your company
        E                B C#m        A E/G#     F#m7sus
Dear exception, don't delay   I will wait patiently
            D                        F#m
Will I see you in the kindness of a friend
              /A     B  /C#  /D#
Or the beauty of the setting sun?

Refrain:
E /G#        B                E
I   have to stop myself from trying
C#m          G#m        A                  B
Trying to predict what might be coming my way
E /G#      B                E
I   must learn to trust in You
   C#m          G#m             A      B        VAMP (2x)
For in Your perfection lies the mystery of exceptions

CHORUS
...Will I see you in the laughter of a child
Or the beauty of a moonlit night?
REFRAIN
       C#m         G#m              A            B
...For in Your perfection lies the mystery of exceptions
REFRAIN
