_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ [Cm] _
_ _ _ [Gm] As I walk down the [Bb] sidewalk of a sin-stricken city, I see the _ _ _ [Eb] misfortunes of men.
_ [F] A man in the _ gutter, lying there lifeless, [Cm] _ _
[F] clutching a bottle [Bb] in his [Eb] hand.
_ [Gm] He was [Bb]
some mother's darling, maybe some young man's father, but now [Gm] he's a prisoner [Eb] to sin.
_ [F] No hugs in the morning, no family altar, he gets by the best [Bb] that he can. _ _ _ _ _
Thank God for [Eb] the _ _ preacher, _ _ _ who told [Bb] me of _ Jesus, _ _ _ for I'd be [F] a _ beggar _ _ _ if not for [Bb] his _ _ _ grace. _ _
Lord, help me [Eb] show _ _ _ _ others _ your love and [Bb] your _
_ [F] _ _ _ [Gm] mercy.
Make my [Cm] life a _ witness _ _ [Bb] _ _
to _ others, I pray. _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ [Bb] In a little white church house, at an old tear-stained altar, a prayer for God's [Eb] mercy was [Bb] heard.
_ [F] Though his sins were many and his burdens heavy, [Eb] he took [F] the _ [Bb] Lord at his [Eb] word.
_ _ [Bb] The angels _ rejoiced as he was forgiven. _ _
Shouts filled the [Fm] temple [Eb] _
that day.
[F] I will never get over that trip to the altar, where I was that sinner [Bb] _
who prayed. _ _ _
Thank God for [Eb] the _ _ preacher, _ _ _ who told [Bb] me of _ Jesus, _ _ _ _ for I'd [F] be a _ _ beggar [Bb] _ [F] _

Lord, [Eb] help me show _ _ others _ _ your [Bb] love and your _ [F] _ _ _ [Gm] mercy.
Make my [Cm] life a _ witness _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ to others, I _ _ _ pray. _
