Tom: D
D G D
God of my life, to Thee I call,
Bm G A D
Afflicted at Thy feet I fall;
D G D
When the great water floods prevail
Bm G A D
Leave not my trembling heart to fail.
[Chorus]
G A D G
Poor though I am, despised, forgot
G A D G
Yet God, my God, forgets me not;
G A D D/C# D/B D/A G
And He is safe and must succeed for whom
A D
The Lord is sure to plead.
[Verse 2]
D G D
Friend of the friendless and the faint,
Bm G A D
Where should I lodge my deep complaint?
D G D
Where but with Thee, whose open door
Bm G A D
Invites the helpless and the poor!
[Chorus]
G A D G
Poor though I am, despised, forgot
G A D G
Yet God, my God, forgets me not;
G A D D/C# D/B D/A G
And He is safe and must succeed for whom
A D
The Lord is sure to plead.
[Verse 3]
D G D
That were a grief I could not bear,
Bm G A D
Didst Thou not hear and answer prayer;
D G D
But a prayer hearing, answering God
Bm G A D
Supports me under every load.
[Chorus]
G A D G
Poor though I am, despised, forgot
G A D G
Yet God, my God, forgets me not;
G A D D/C# D/B D/A G
And He is safe and must succeed for whom
A D
The Lord is sure to plead.
