Verse 1
F#m           A2          E              Bsus     F#m A2 E Bsus 
I was sold to slavery, my brothers moved by jealousy
F#m            A2            E          Bsus      F#m A2 E Bsus
Father's favor to a well, my master's favor to a cell
    F#m                 A2
But still Your kindness stayed with me
  E                 Bsus             F#m  A2  E Bsus
I knew someday that You would set me free
F#m                 A2
Through it all Your grace was shown
   E             Bsus         F#m  A2  E  Bsus
My confidence in You has only grown

Chorus
       F#m A2  E                 Bsus
When I pray, I feel that You are near
       F#m A2  E                      Bsus
When I cry,    You're there to dry my tears
       F#m A2            E
When I shout, You're the only one
           Bsus         F#m  A2  E  Bm
Who really hears when I pray

Verse 2
F#m          A2
I was in the field the day
     E              Bsus      F#m A2 E Bsus
That Your anointing came my way
F#m           A2
From the lion to the bear
E              Bsus             F#m  A2  E  Bsus
From the giant to the kingdom's chair
     F#m              A2
From deadly spears of jealousy
   E            Bsus       F#m  A2  E  Bsus
To weaknesses exposed of me
F#m          A2               E                Bsus
Cast me not away from Thee, create a brand new heart in me

[Chorus]

Bridge
               F#m       A                E
Praying in Gethsemane, I know You saw the ones like me
    Bsus             F#m
The cross You freely chose to bear
   A               E
It was my sin that nailed You there
Bsus        F#m           A             E       A
Now You mediate for me so I can pray confidently

[Chorus]
