IN YOUR PRESENCE AGAIN
Capo 1
VERSE 1:
D
Lately, it seems
A
I no longer feel the beams
Em7 G
of joy shining in my heart.
Gma7 G
I don't claim to be very smart,
D
but maybe it's 'cuz I've
D G
neglected our daily conversations.
D
Maybe, it's 'cuz I so easily give
A G
into these temptations.
Em7 G
Maybe, It's 'cuz of unrepented sins.
D A
All I know is I miss the intimacy
Em7 G
I once had, Lord, with Thee.
CHORUS:
G
May I kneel in
C
Your presence again.
D
To know Your peace.
G
May my devotion
C
to You never ever cease.
G
May I kneel in
D
Your presence again.
VERSE 2:
Father, forgive me!
Lord, hear my humble plea!
Help me turn form my sin.
Help me resist temptation
May Your grace be alive
In the heart of this repentant sinner.
May, into Your word, I dive.
Swim like a minnow (pronounced minner—think southern)
In Your grace. Be my defender
in this battle I daily face.
Lord, show me Your grace!
(REPEAT CHORUS)
The Light
The Light
Numb, losing control
Broken, shivering cold
Stuck down in this hole
Darkness surrounds my soul
God don't take me
I don't wanna die tonight
Jesus save me
I can barely see the light
Lord forgive me
I'm trying to make it right
Can't you help me see the light?
Lost so far from home
Alone, nowhere to go
Weak and losing hope
Plunging towards the unknown
God don't take me
I don't wanna die tonight
Jesus save me
I can barely see the light
Lord forgive me
I'm trying to make it right
Won't you help me see the light?
I'm about to break
I don't want to fade
On my knees I pray
Are my words in vain?
Everything seems gray
The edges start to fray
Nothing left to say
There's nothing left to say
God don't take me
I don't wanna die tonight
Jesus save me
I can barely see the light
Lord forgive me
I'm trying to make this right
Someone help me see the light
Will no one help me see the light?
