Part The Waters, Lord
(Charles F. Brown)

For Roda, my wife.. I love you always.. 

Chorus:
         C                               F
When I think I'm going under, part the waters, Lord. 
        C               Am                Dm ----G
When I feel the waves around me, calm the sea. 
        C               E7                 F             Fm
When I cry for help, O hear me, Lord, and hold out Your hand. 
          C               G              C  --- F --- C   
Touch my life, still the raging storm in me. 

Verse 1:
             Dm                    G                    F             C
Knowing You love me (knowing you love me)  through the burden I must bear, 
              Dm                       G                 F                C
Hearing Your footsteps (hearing Your footsteps) lets me know I'm in Your care, 
            Am          Em        F                   C
And in the night of my life You bring the promise of day, 
            D7                G7
Here is my hand, show me the way. 

***Repeat Chorus

Verse 2: (same chords as verse 1)

Knowing You love me helps me face another day. 
Hearing Your footsteps drives the clouds and fear away; 
And in the tears of my life I see the sorrow You bore, 
Here is my pain, heal it once more. 

***Repeat Chorus

To God be the glory forever, amen.
