       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

...For in Your perfection lies the mystery of exceptions
