Capo 4

G5
Deep is the river that I have to cross
E5                       D5
Heavy the weight on my shoulder
G5
I have discovered how great is the cost
E5                        D5
Of trying alone to cross over
C5            E5           D5              C5
I try and I try but the current's too strong
                 E5       D5              C5
It's pulling me under and my strength is gone
               E5    D5
Don't leave me stranded

Chorus:
       G5      E5         D5
Rescue me, my God and my King,
E5        C5       G5            D5
Water is rising and I cannot breathe,
         G5      E5        D5
Wrap your arms all around me and
E5      C5   G5   D5          E5      C5   G5  D5 
Carry me over (rescue me) [Carry me over] 

G5
There is a bridge that is easy to cross
E5                           D5
When all of our burdens are lifted
G5
Peace is the land that is waiting for us
E5                        D5
Lord, give me faith to believe it
C5              E5             D5          C5
Cause I'm in a storm but I'm willing to fight
          E5      D5           C5              E5   D5
I'll overcome and I will not die with You by my side

[Chorus]

         G5   E5           D5
I will sail over the oceans and
G5       E5            D5 
High over the mountains and 
G5     E5             D5
Soar up to the Heavens
C5                                               D5
Here is my hand is my heart and my soul and my mind

[Chorus]

       G5     E5           D5
Rescue me, my God and my King,
E5          C5        G5            D5
You are the only one who can save me
         G5      E5        D5
Wrap your arms all around me and 
E5      C5   G5   D5
Carry me over (rescue me)
E5      C5   G5   D5
Carry me over (rescue me) 
E5      C5   G5   D5
Carry me over (rescue me)
