[Intro]
G(just keep playing fast)
[Verse 1]
(G)                            D  Em  
Sometimes the night was beautiful
(Em)                            D  C  
Sometimes the sky was so far away 
(C)                                     D  
Sometimes it seemed to stoop so close 
(D)                                             Em  
You could touch it but your heart would break 
(Em)                                  C  Em  
Sometimes the morning came too soon 
(Em)                           C  Em  
Sometimes the day could be so hot 
(Em)                           D  C  
There was so much work left to do 
(C)               Am  
But so much You'd already done 
[Chorus]
Oh GGod, You are my DGod 
And CI will Dever praise GYou 
Oh GGod, You are my DGod 
And CI will Dever praise GYou
I will Emseek You in the mDorning 
And I will Clearn to walk in Your Amways 
And Gstep by step You'll Dlead me 
And I will Cfollow You Dall of my days G  
[Verse 2]
(G)                       D  Em  
Sometimes I think of Abraham 
(Em)                                 D   C  
How one star he saw had been lit for me 
(C)                              D  
He was a stranger in this land 
(D)                             Em  
And I am that, no less than he 
(Em)                          C  Em  
And on this road to righteousness 
(Em)                             C  Em  
Sometimes the climb can be so steep 
(Em)                  D  C  
I may falter in my steps 
(C)         Am  
But never beyond Your reach 
[Chorus]
Oh GGod, You are my DGod 
And CI will Dever praise GYou 
Oh GGod, You are my DGod 
And CI will Dever praise GYou
I will Emseek You in the mDorning 
And I will Clearn to walk in Your Amways 
And Gstep by step You'll Dlead me 
And I will Cfollow You Dall of my days G  
And I will Emfollow You all of my Ddays
And I will Cfollow You all of my Amdays
And Gstep by step You'll Dlead me 
And I will Cfollow You Dall of my daysG  
{GSmall intrumental}D  
And I will Cfollow You Dall of my daysG  
[Sometimes the nGight was beautiful]D  
And I will Cfollow You Dall of my daysG
