Hope
words and music by Mitch McVicker
E B C#m A
Every dog'll have its day
E
But everyday the sun will shine
C#m A
I hope I never see the day when I leave You behind
E B C#m A
So much is callin' out my name
E
So much of it I choose to hear
C#m A
I must admit I'm so afraid my love's no more than fear
E B
'Cause every single day I spend
C#m A
Somewhere between one hour and ten
E B C#m B A
Just lettin' my soul run around wild
E B
And there's a simple prayer I love to pray
C#m A
I never do unless rain comes my way
E B C#m B F#m G#m
But without You, Lord my walk wouldn't last a mile
Chorus
E G A
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna live, I don't wanna live,
A
Don't wanna live without You, Lord
E G D G D
Don't wanna live, don't wanna live down here all alone
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna live, I don't wanna live,
G
Don't wanna live without some hope
F#m G
To hang my hat on
E B C#m A
If home is where the heart is at
E B
Then I forget where all I've lived
C#m A
'Cause my shelter never lasts, the wind just blows within
E B C#m A
It leaves me tattered and torn
E
By the gusts and by the gales
C#m A
And in the middle of the storm my faith just seems so frail
E B
But every single day I'm blessed
C#m A
As you lift me from the tangled mess
E B C#m B A
Caused by the whirlwind turnin' deep inside
E B
And I never cease to be amazed
C#m A
How Your simple love still somehow plays
E B C#m B F#m G#m
The biggest part of all things in my life
Chorus
Bridge
E B
'Cause every single day I spend
C#m A
Somewhere between one hour and ten
E B C#m B A
Just lettin' my soul run around wild
E B
But I never cease to be amazed
C#m A
How Your simple love still somehow plays
E B C#m B F#m G#m
The biggest part of all things in my life, and that's why
Chorus
(repeat)
