Tom: Am
C F G
Sometimes when life seems gentle and blessings flood my way,
C Dm G
I turn my gaze away from You and soon forget to pray.
Am Dm C B
But when the sky grows darker and courage turns to fear,
Em Am F G
My anxious voice cries upward with words you long to hear.
[Chorus]
C F C
Lord, I need You when the sea of life is calm.
Dm G Am G C
O Lord, I need You when the wind is blowing strong.
Am Em F E
Whether trials come or cease, keep me always on my knees.
Am F G C
Lord, I need You. Lord I need You.
[Verse 2]
C Am F G
Lord, help me to remember I'm weak but You are strong.
C Am Dm G
I cannot sing apart from You, for Lord You are my song.
Am Dm C B
Although I'm prone to wander and boast in all I do;
Em Am F G
Lord keep my eyes turned upward so I depend on You.
[Chorus]
C F C
Lord, I need You when the sea of life is calm.
Dm G Am G C
O Lord, I need You when the wind is blowing strong.
Am Em F E
Whether trials come or cease, keep me always on my knees.
Am F G E Am
Lord, I need You. Lord I need You.
Am F G C
Lord, I need You. Lord I need You.
