[Verse 1]
         G     C      D
I bind unto myself today
             D/F#            G
The gift to call on the Trinity
              G        C      D
The saving faith where I can say
              D/F#            G
Come Three in One or One in Three

[Chorus]
     C          D                   G
Be above me as high as the noonday sun
      C          G             D
Be below me the rock I set my feet upon
      C           D                  Em
Be beside me the wind on my left and right
      C
Be behind me oh
  D        Am         D         G
Circle me with Your truth and light
                  C  G  (C D/C G/C D)
La da da da da da da da x4

[Verse 2]
         G      C      D
I bind unto myself today
              D/F#           G
The love of angles and seriphims
        G             C          D
The prayers and phophecies of saints
               D/F#               G
The words and deeds of righteous men

[Verse 3]
         G      C    D
I bind unto myself today
             D/F#                   G
The hope to rise from the dust of earth
                G     C       D
The songs of nature giving praise
             D/F#          G
To Father, Spirit, Living Word

[Bridge]
              Em       C
Against all powers deceiving
           Em        C
Against my own unbelieving
                 D
Whether near or far

[Outro]
         G     C      D
I bind unto myself today
            D/F#            G
The gift to call on the Trinity
