Verse 1:

(leader)
E / F#-G#-B-E Who am I that You are mindful
C# / G#-B-C#-E of me, that You
F# / F#-A-C#-E hear me, when I
E / F#-G#-B-E call
E / F#-G#-B-E Is it true that You were thinking
C# / G#-B-C#-E of me, how You
F# / F#-A-C#-E love me it's a-
D / F#-A-D-E mazing, who am I Lord?

(repeat 1x)
(1x no music)
(1x w/music)
(2x music only)

E / B-E-F#-G# I am a friend of God
C# / B-C#-E-G# I am a friend of God
F# / A-C#-E-F# I am a friend of God, You call me

Ending:

A / A-B-C#-E friend, You call me
G# / F#-G#-B-E friend, You call me
F# / F#-A-C#-E friend, You call me
E / F#-G#-B-E friend

From sheet music
E = E major chord = E-G#-B
C#m7 = C# minor 7th = C#-E-G#-B
F#m7 = F# minor 7th = F#-A-C#-E
D = D major = D-F#-A
F# / E = F# major w/E in bass = E / F#-A#-C#
A = A major = A-C#-E
E / G# = E major w/G# in bass = G# / E-G#-B
Amaj9 = A major add 9th = A-B-C#-E

My version
Instead of regular E major, I played Emaj9 = E-F#-G#-B
Instead of regular D major, I played Dmaj9 = D-E-F#-A
Also, i used different inversions of each of the chords above
