[Verse 1]
C
You could not plan for this
G
No, there was no silhouette
Am
Up against the pink horizon
F
To warn you of the hit
C
But you absorbed it all with grace
G Am
Like a child you spoke of faith unmoved
F
That holds onto you
[Chorus]
C
This thing is going to try to break you
Am
But it doesn't have to
F C G
You're showing us how
C
This thing is going to bend and shape you
Am
But He won't let it take you
F C G
You know it somehow
F C F C F
This thing is not going to break you
[Verse 2]
C
You could take your loss
G
You could hide away from us
Am
With your grief lassoed around you
F
But you're laying it in the sun
C
And you stare straight into the light
G Am
You say you'd rather go blind than look away
F
What can I say?
[Chorus]
C
This thing is going to try to break you
Am
But it doesn't have to
F C G
You're showing us how
C
This thing is going to bend and shape you
Am
But He won't let it take you
F C G
You know it somehow
F C
This thing is not going to break you
[Outro]
F C
This thing is not going to break you
F C Am
This thing is not going to break you
Am
It doesn't have to
F C G
You're showing us how
C
This thing is going to bend and shape you
Am
But He won't let it take you
F C G
You know it somehow
F C
This thing is not going to break you

This thing is not going to break you
