G/B (143121@7) CAnd (x32010@1)never look in vain;

And all is well again;
C (x32010@1) D/C (x30232@1)
The thought of thee is mightier far
C (x32010@1) D/CThan (x30232@1)sin and pain and sorrow are;
C (x32010@1) G/B (143121@7) Am7 (x02010@1) D9sus G (320003@1) (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 (x32010@1) G/B (143121@7) Am7There (x02010@1)is an eye that never sleeps
D (xx0232@1) GBeneath (320003@1)the wing of night;
C (x32010@1) G/B (143121@7) Am7There (x02010@1)is an ear that never shuts
D (xx0232@1) GWhen (320003@1)sink the beams of light.
C (x32010@1) D/CThere (x30232@1)is an arm that never tires
Bm7 (x20202@1) Esus4 (022200@1)EWhen (022100@1)human strength gives way;
Am7 (x02010@1) G/BThere (143121@7)is a love that never fails
C (x32010@1) D9sus
When earthly loves decay.
C (x32010@1) G/B (143121@7) Am7But (x02010@1)there's a power which man can wield
D (xx0232@1) GWhen (320003@1)mortal aid is vain,
C (x32010@1) G/B (143121@7) Am7That (x02010@1)eye, that arm, that love to reach,
D (xx0232@1) GThat (320003@1)listening ear to gain.
C (x32010@1) D/CThat (x30232@1)power is prayer which soars on high
Bm7 (x20202@1) Esus4 (022200@1) EThrough (022100@1)Jesus to the throne;
Am7 (x02010@1) G/BAnd (143121@7)moves the hand which moves the world,
C (x32010@1) Dm7
To bring salvation down;
GTo (320003@1)bring salvation down.
