Oh Father, we realize that we are living in a troublesome time.
We are living in a world, my [Bb] God, where we need you.
[C]
Why, the [Bb] roads we travel are mighty rough,
and the hills we got to climb are mighty high.
Oh Lord, some of us come this morning with wounded spirits.
Some of us come this morning with a bowed down head.
Some of us come this morning with tears in our eyes.
Why, because some of us have been [Eb] misunderstood,
and some of us have been [Bb] called everything but a child of God.
Oh Father, but we know that you got all power in your hands.
Why, we know you got power to destroy,
[C] but Lord, you will defend.
Why, will you throw your long arms of protection around us?
And will [Bbm] you please lead us [Gb] in these testing [Bb] times?
Why, lead us like you led Abraham.
[Bbm] Lead us like [Eb] you led Paul and Silas.
[Bb] Oh Father, we're not afraid of this journey.
Why, Father, [Bb] if you will hold our hands.
Oh Lord, [Bbm]
[Bb] we're [Eb] [Bbm] [Bb]
not calling you for a hot side show to the world.
Why, but we are calling [Eb] you this [E] morning,
[Bbm] because you said everything [Eb] must bow,
[Bbm] and every [Ebm]
tongue must [Bb] confess.
[Ab] Now
[Bbm] Lord, now, [Eb] now, now, now Lord,
[Bbm]
when it's all over,
when we must go in arms,
when we [D] must pray for [Eb] dying pilgrims, [Bb] over yonder.
[Ebm] [Bb]
[Eb] Over [Bbm] yonder.
Over yonder.
Where we won't need in [E] the light of the city.
[Bb] Lord, Lord, [Eb]
Lord, for thou shalt light [Bb] that city.
Over yonder.
[F] [Bb]
[Ab] Where they tell us there'll tree [Bb] of life, oh yeah.
[Ab] And we can take a leaf off that tree.
And we can heal our wounded soul.
[G]
[Bb] [C]
Give us a home, [Bb] Father.
In thy name do we pray.
Amen and thank [Bbm] God.
[N]
