Intro:   C   Bm7Asus7 A7  
         C   Bm7Asus7 Dsus2(4)                        
I Glook to thee in Am7every need,
And G/Bnever look in Cvain;
I Am7feel thy strong and G/Btender love,
And Call is well GM7again;
The Cthought of thee is D/Cmightier far
Than Csin and pain and D/Csorrow are;
            C        G/B      Am7D9sus         G(rpt. intro)    
Than sin and pain and sorrow are,   my Lord.
Discouraged in the work of life,
Disheartened by its load.
Shamed by its failures or its fears,
I sink beside the road;
But let me only think of thee
And then new heart springs up in me;
And then new heart springs up in me, my Lord.
There is an Ceye that G/Bnever sleAm7eps 
Beneath the Dwing of nighGt;
There is an Cear that G/Bnever shutAm7s 
When sink the Dbeams of lighGt.
There is an Carm that never tiD/Cres 
When Bm7human strength gives waEsus4y;E  
There is a Am7love that never faG/Bils 
                    CD9sus
When earthly loves decay.
But there's a Cpower which mG/Ban can wieAm7ld 
When mortal Daid is vaiGn,
That Ceye, that aG/Brm, that lAm7ove to reach, 
That lDistening ear to gGain.
That pCower is prayer which sD/Coars on high
Through JBm7esus to the thronEsus4e;E  
And Am7moves the hand which G/Bmoves the world,
To Cbring salvation Dm7down;
To bring salvGation down.
[solo as verse, repeat chorus]
I Glook to thee in Am7every need.GM7

And all is well again;

The thought of thee is mightier far

D9sus (rpt. intro)

Than sin and pain and sorrow are, my Lord.

Discouraged in the work of life,

Disheartened by its load.

Shamed by its failures or its fears,

I sink beside the road;

But let me only think of thee

And then new heart springs up in me;

And then new heart springs up in me, my Lord.

C G/B Am7

There is an eye that never sleeps

D G

Beneath the wing of night;

C G/B Am7

There is an ear that never shuts

D G

When sink the beams of light.

C D/C

There is an arm that never tires

Bm7 Esus4 E

When human strength gives way;

Am7 G/B

There is a love that never fails

D9sus

When earthly loves decay.

C G/B Am7

But there's a power which man can wield

D G

When mortal aid is vain,

C G/B Am7

That eye, that arm, that love to reach,

D G

That listening ear to gain.

C D/C

That power is prayer which soars on high

Bm7 Esus4 E

Through Jesus to the throne;

Am7 G/B

And moves the hand which moves the world,

C Dm7

To bring salvation down;

To bring salvation down.

[solo as verse, repeat chorus]

G Am7 GM7

I look to thee in every need.
