If I Stand Chords by Rich Mullins

[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And there's more that [G] rises in the [C] morning than the sun
[G] And [Am] more that shines [E] in the night than [F] just the moon
[C] There's [Dm] more than [G] just this fire [C] here that [G] keeps [Am] me warm
[G] In a shelter that [D] is larger than [G] this room
And [C] there's a loyalty [G] that's deeper than [C] mere sentiments
[G] And a [Am] music higher than the [E] songs that [F] I can sing
[C] _
[Dm] The stuff of [G] earth competes [C] with the [G] _ [Am] allegiance
I owe [D] only to the [F#] giver of all [C] the [G] things
So if [C] I stand, let [F] me stand [Am] on the promise
[D] That you will pour [C] me [G] through
_ _ And if [Dm] I [C] can't, let [F] me fall [Am] on the grace
That [C] first brought me to [F] you
_ _ _ [G] And if [C] I sing, let [F] me sing [Am] for the joy
[D] That is born in me [C] this [G] song
_ And if [Dm] I [F] weep, let it be [Am] as a man
Who [C] is [G] longing [C] for his [F] home
[Am] And _ [G] _
[C] there's more that [G] dances on the [C] prairies than the wind
[G] And more [Am] that pulses in [E] the ocean [F] than the tide
_ [C] _
[Dm] There's a [G] love that is fiercer [C] than the love [G] between [Am] friends
[G] More gentle than a [D] mother's [G] than the babies at her side
[C] And there's a loyalty [G] that's deeper than [C] mere sentiments
[G] And a [Am] music higher than [E] the songs that I [F] can sing
[C] The [Dm] stuff [G] of earth competes with [C] the [G] [Am] allegiance
I [G] owe only to the [D] giver of all [C] the things
[G] So if [C] I stand, let [F] me stand on [Am] the promise
[D] That you will pour [C] me [G] through
_ _ And if [D] I [C] can't, let [F] me fall on [Am] the grace
That [G] first brought me [C] to [F] you
_ [Am] _ _ [G] And if [C] I [F] sing, let me sing for the joy
[D] That is born in me [G] this song
_ _ And [Dm] if I [F] weep, let it be as a man
Who [C] is [G] longing [C] for his [F] home
_ [Am] _ _ [G] And if [C] I stand, let me [F] stand [Am] on the promise
[D] That you [G] will pour me through _ _ _

[C] if I [Dm] sing, [F] let me [G] sing [Am] for the joy
[D] That is born in [G] me this song
_ And [D] if I weep, [F] let it be as a [Am] man

[G] Who is longing [C] for _ his home
