Introduction:

                   G                                                 D                                         G 
There's more that rises in the morning than the sun
 D/F#               Em                                                     D                   C 
More that shines in the night than just the moon
                           Am                                                     D             G               D/F#Em 
There's more than just this fire here that keeps me warm
                                           A                                               D 
In a shelter that is larger than this room
                         G                                           D                                                   G 
There's a loyalty that's deeper than mere sentiment
 D/F#         Em                                                                 D           C 
A music higher than the songs that I can sing
                     Am                                                               D   G  D/F#Em 
    The stuff of earth competes for the allegiance
                                         A                                                 D 
I owe only to the giver of all good things
                     G                                   C                                   Em                                   A                           DD4 
So if I stand let me stand on the promise that you will pull me through
                         Am                         C                           Em                                         D               G  CEm  D 
And if I can't let me fall on the grace that first brought me to you
         G                               C                             Em                                   A                           DD4 
If I sing let me sing for the joy that has born in me these songs
                         Am                   C                   Em                                       D           G  CEm  D 
But if I weep let it be as a man who is longing for his home
                   G                             C                               G 
There's more that dances on the prairies than the wind
 D/F#             Em                               D               C 
More that pulses in the ocean than the tide
 Am                                                     D                       G     D/F#       Em 
    There's a love that is fiercer than the love between friends
                                     A                                                     D 
More gently than a mother's when her baby's at her side
                         G                                           D                                                   G 
There's a loyalty that's deeper than mere sentiment
 D/F#         Em                                                                 D           C 
A music higher than the songs that I can sing
                 Am                                                               D   G  D/F#Em 
The stuff of earth competes for the allegiance
                                         A                                                 D 
I owe only to the giver of all good things
