(verse 1)
C5                        A5           A5
So many times I question certain circumstances 
    F5                  D5
and things I could not understand.
G5                     F5    
Many times in trials weakness blurs my vision 
    D5             G5              C5 
and my frustration gets so out of hand.
C5                             A5        A5        
It's then I am reminded, I've never been forsaken.
     F5                           D5
I've never had to stand one test alone.
       G5                              F5
When I look at all the victories, the Spirit rises up in me.
     D5                  G5                C5
It's through the fire my weakness is made strong.

(chorus)
C(cut)    C5                A5                 A5
He never promised that the cross would not get heavy
        F5                          D5
and the hill would not be hard to climb.
         G5                         F5  
He never offered a victory without fighting.
        D5                G5       C5
He said help would always come in time.
                     A5             A5          
Remember when you're standing in the valley of decision
        F5                  D5       G5
and the advisary says give in, hold on.
              F(cut)     F5
Our Lord will show up 
            D5                   G5     C5
and He will take you through the fire again

(Bridge)
A5                        F5
I know within myself that I would surly perish
A5                                F5                G5
If I trust the hand of God, He'll shield the flame again.
