If I Stand

Key: F

Introduction:

D                                                                         A                                    D  
Well there's more that rises in the morning than the sun,
                          G  
more that shines in the night than just the moon!
                                                                                                                  D  
There's more than just this fire here that keeps me warm,
                A  
and a shelter that is larger than this room...
                                     D  
And there's a loyalty that is deeper than mere sentiment,
                                G  
and a music higher than the songs that I can sing...
                                                                                                     D  
The stuff of earth competes for the a-le-e-giance I owe only to the
Giver of all good things...
                     D                                                                                                                                                 A  
So if I stand, let me stand on the promise that You will see me
through...
                        G                                                                                                                                                 D  
And if i can't let me fall on the Grace that first brought me to You!
                                                                                                                                                                             A  
And if i sing let it be for the joy that has born in me the-eese
songs...
                        G                                                                                                                              D  
and if i weep let it be as a man who is longing fo-or his ho-ome...
Verse 2
D                                                                            A                                 D  
Well there's more that dances on the prarie than the wind,
                          G  
more that pulses in the ocean than the tide,
                                                                                                          D  
there's a love that is fiercer than the love between friends,
             A  
more gentle than a mother's, with her newborn by her side...
                                     D                                      A                                         D  
And there's a loyalty that is deeper than mere sentiment,
                                G  
and a music higher than the songs that I can sing!
                                                                                                     D  
The stuff of earth competes for the a-le-e-giance
                A  
I owe only to the Giver of all good things...
Chorus
                        G                                                 A                                                                         D  
Yes if I weep let it be as a man who is longing fo-or his ho-ooomme...!
