Verse 1
Em                   Bm          D        G
When sins and fears prevailing rise
        Em                    Bm        G
And fainting hope almost expires
Em         Bm     D         G   
Jesus to Thee I lift my eyes
       Em                        Bm        G
To Thee I breathe my soul's desires
Em               Bm          D       G
Are you not mine, my living Lord
        Em                       Bm        G        
And can my hope, my comfort die
Em               A     D  A  G
Fixed on the everlasting word
Em                       A            D     A   G
That word which built the earth and sky

Here let my faith unshaken dwell

Immovable the promise stands
Em            A              D     A  G 
Not all the powers of earth or hell
Em             A             D   A  G
Can e're dissolve the sacred bands
Em         A         D  A   G

Here oh my soul Thy trust repose
    D
If Jesus is forever mine
      Bm
Not death itself that last of foes
       G                           A
Can break a union so divine
