I Just Want To Please The Lord

Tom: C

C
There are trophies to be won
                     F
Success is there to claim
                           G
And some would give their very soul

To reach earth's highest plain
         C
But to count it gain would be my lost
F
Rejecting truth carries a terrible cost

So I lift my eyes to things above
G
Serving with a heart of Love

[Chorus]
C                G          Am
I just want to please the Lord
C          G            C
Be in His will in every way
                     G
To be lost in His presence,
Am            C
Found in His likeness
G
Hear him say: well done
      C
Some day

[Verse 2]
C
My plans had all been made,
      F
Sins die already cast
                     G
The world was at my finger tips
   F               G
I had arrived, at last
         C
But the cry could not be pacified
        F                     G
From a heart about to break inside
F
Jesus showed Himself to me
     G
He said just look what you could be

[Chorus]
C              G           Am
I just want to please the Lord
C          G            C
Be in His will in every way
                    G
To be lost in His presence,
Am            C
Found in His likeness
G
Hear him say: well done
     C
Some day

[Bridge]
   F                C
So I will bring my offering
F              G
Lay it at His feet
F          G                F           G
All I was, all I am, all I ever want to be

[Chorus]
C               G          Am
I just want to please the Lord
C          G             C
Be in His will in every way
                     G
To be lost in His presence,
Am            C
Found in His likeness
G
Hear him say: well done
      C
Some day

[Coda]
                     G
To be lost in His presence,
Am            C
Found in His likeness
G                   C
Hear him say: well done
          G                C
Welcome home, my faithful son
           F                 G
I want to hear him say well done
      C   G
Some day
      C
Some day
