[Verse 1]
D G D
My fallen figure shames the earth;
G A D
Once I was born, yet never I lived.
G F#m Bm
Never forsaking you came to me.
Em D G D
Giving my life and breaking my chains.
Bm F#m
Tenderly You gathered me up;
Bm A A7
Filled with love and sweating blood.
Bm F#m
Ever patient, You taught me the Word,
D Em A D
Carved in my heart, it forever remains.
[Verse 2]
D G D
Never I knew what life should be;
G A D
All I can do is follow Your way.
G F#m Bm
When on the path, I stumble and fall.
Em D G D
Turning You give the courage I need.
Bm F#m
Though the path is narrow and steep;
Bm A A7
Cruel thorns leave a trail of blood,
Bm F#m
Still I pledge I will follow the Way,
D Em A D
Follow as far as my Father will lead.
[Verse 3]
D G D
Freed from a sleep so deep and dark,
G A D
gladly I wake to knowing Your Will.
G F#m Bm
Though death may stab me time and again,
Em D G D
Nothing can change a loyal heart.
Bm F#m
This I pledge, my life is for You;
Bm A A7
For Your will I rush forward to die.
Bm F#m
This I pledge 'till the struggle is done,
D Em A D
'Till we proclaim the victorious day.
