Songs

 

VERSE 1:

 

G

Outside, there's a raging storm

C

but inside this cabin

G

the fire is oh so warm.

D

Inside Your will

D7

peace does fill

C

this heart of mine.

G                 C

Why am I so inclined

G                            C

to go outside Your will and sin?

 

CHORUS:

 

D

Why am I Why am I

A

so unfaithful?

G              A

Why cant I be thankful?

D

Oh, If only I would deny

D7

my weak and unwilllng flesh

D

Why am I Why am I

A

so unfaithful?

G                              D

Oh if only with Your will, I'd mesh.

D

Why am I Why am I

G

so unfaithful?

 

VERSE 2:

 

I'm so easily distracted

by my weak and unwilling flesh.

I'm so easily extracted

From Your will.

Oh if only I'd be still

And listen to Your voice

my heart would rejoice.

Oh if only with Your will, I'd mesh.

 

(REPEAT CHORUS)
