Intro: C Bm7 Asus7 A7
[C] [Bm7] [Asus7] [Dsus2(4)]
I [G]look to thee in [Am7]every need,
And [G/B]never look in [C]vain;
I [Am7]feel thy strong and [G/B]tender love,
And [C]all is well [GM7]again;
The [C]thought of thee is [D/C]mightier far
Than [C]sin and pain and [D/C]sorrow are;
C G/B Am7 D9sus G (rpt. intro)
Than sin and pain and sorrow are, my Lord.
Discouraged in the work of life,
Disheartened by its load.
Shamed by its failures or its fears,
I sink beside the road;
But let me only think of thee
And then new heart springs up in me;
And then new heart springs up in me, my Lord.
There is an [C]eye that [G/B]never sle[Am7]eps
Beneath the [D]wing of nigh[G]t;
There is an [C]ear that [G/B]never shut[Am7]s
When sink the [D]beams of ligh[G]t.
There is an [C]arm that never ti[D/C]res
When [Bm7]human strength gives wa[Esus4]y;[E]
There is a [Am7]love that never fa[G/B]ils
When [C]earthly loves de[D9sus]cay.
But there's a [C]power which m[G/B]an can wie[Am7]ld
When mortal [D]aid is vai[G]n,
That [C]eye, that a[G/B]rm, that l[Am7]ove to reach,
That l[D]istening ear to g[G]ain.
That p[C]ower is prayer which s[D/C]oars on high
Through J[Bm7]esus to the thron[Esus4]e;[E]
And [Am7]moves the hand which [G/B]moves the world,
To [C]bring salvation [Dm7]down;
To bring salv[G]ation down.
(solo as verse, repeat chorus)
I [G]look to thee in [Am7]every need.[GM7]
