[Am] [G]
[D] Many times in our [Em] [G] life
[A#] [G] [Em] [D] when we do all we can to do what's [Bm] right,
[D]
[F#m] So little do [G] we have to live with these cries,
[Em] [G]
[A#] [G] [D] But the Lord will help us win [Bm] this fight,
Oh, we [D] do.
[F] [D] [G] Go [Em] on,

[D]
Brothers, [Bm] [D]
[F#m] [G] I wrote a song one day
[Em] [G] That
[A] [Bm] [G] [D] will place on my heart by God,
[Bm] [D] Oh, how nice,
[E] [F] [D] [G] Telling the world that He said too late,
[D] But many didn't hear my warning,
[Bm] [D]
[A] [Bm] [D] I [G] went on and I wrote another [D] song,
[E] [G]
[A] [Bm] [G] [D] Saying God's sure willing to carry on, yeah,
[F#m] [G] Some of my old sisters and brothers fail to hear me,
[E] [D] And today they're dead and gone, yeah,
[Bm] [D]
Some of [F#] you might [D] remember [G] I wrote another song,
[Em] [G]
[A] [G] Telling the world [D] about God's goodness to me, yeah,
Since then I wrote [G] another song,
Saying mama don't leave your little [Em] children,
[G]
Because in the eyes of [D] God He's not pleased,
Right now I'm putting on my [Bm] soul,
All I [A] want you to do is [G] go on,
Lord, you're still [D] in time [Bm] for [D] me,
Lord, you're still [G] in time for me,
Lord, [A#]
[G] you're still [D] in time [Bm] [D]
for [G]
[Em] me,
[G] [A#] And the [G] world not going to be able to [D] do me no harm.
Treat me mean, do [E] everything you [D] want to do.
[G] Still I'm gonna steal and charge with my life.
I'm gonna steal [D] and charge.
[Bm] [D] [F#m]
[D] [G]
Thinking about [D] all the things that happened to me, yeah.
[F] [D]
[G] Still I'm gonna stay on my [D] knees and keep my hand in [Em] God's [G] hands.
Because [Em] I believe it's on my [D] heart.
After a while he's gonna set me free.
[F] [D] Life, your world's [Em] wage if you want to.
[G]
[Em] [G]
It [D] really don't make no difference to me, [Bm] no.
No, [D] no.
[G] I went home to lose him.
But after a while, [D] he promised me faithful.
He was coming back, yeah.
[G]
[D] [F#]
[G] Go on.
[Dm] [Em]
Go on and [G] steal [D] and charge.
I've been knocked down.
I've been kicked around.
[F#m] [G]
Go [Dm] [Em]
[G] [Em] [G] on and steal [D] and charge.
Whenever trouble gets in my [Bm] [D]
way.
Go on and steal [G] and charge.
[D] [G]
My life is [D] yours.
[Bm] Make no [D] difference what the world may say.
Go on and steal [G] and charge.
[D] [Em] [G] That's why I'm always trusting.
