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: GD Em Don't stop your crying on my account C Em D A frightening lion, no doubt GD 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: CDGD/F# Em But He won't say the words you wish that he would CDGD/F# Em Oh, he don't do the deeds you know that He could CDGD/F# Em He won't think the thoughts you think that He should CDGD Em D/F# GD 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: CDGD/F# Em But He won't say the words you wish that he would CDGD/F# Em Oh, he don't do the deeds you know that He could CDGD/F# Em He won't think the thoughts you think that He should CD 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 CGD Em D/F# GD 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
