Tom: Em

Intro:                                          
D     Bm    G
D     Bm    G 


V1:
D
Oh,what I would do to have
Bm
the kind of faith it takes
                     G
To climb out of this boat I'm in
C                 G
Onto the crashing waves
D
To step out of my comfort zone
Bm
Into the realm of the unknown
G
Where Jesus is,
C                        G
And he's holding out his hand

        A
But the waves are calling out my name
G                     D
and they laugh at me
A
Reminding me of all the times
G                       D
I've tried before and failed
A
The waves they keep on telling me
G             A
time and time again
G      
"Boy, you'll never win,
Gm                   G   A   D   
you'll never win."   

Chorus:
                   A                        Bm
But the voice of truth tells me a different story
             G                           D
the voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
                   A                        Bm
and the voice of truth says "this is for my glory"
                      G                  Bm
Out of all the voices calling out to me
                 G                               D
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

V2:
    
D
Oh, what I would do
            Bm
to have the kind of strength it takes
                  G
To stand before a giant
            C           G
with just a sling and a stone
D
Surrounded by the sound
              Bm
of a thousand warriors
                 G
shaking in their armor
               C                        G
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand
        A
But the giant's calling out
               G             D
my name and he laughs at me
A
Reminding me of all the times
G                      
I've tried before and failed
G
The giant keeps on telling me
A
time and time again
     Bm
"Boy you'll never win,
       G            A    D
you'll never win."

Chorus 2:

                 A                          Bm
But the voice of truth tells me a different story
             G                               D
the voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
                 A                          Bm
and the voice of truth says "this is for my glory"
                      G                  Bm
Out of all the voices calling out to me
                 G                               B
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

Bridge:
                           C
but the stone was just the right size
                        B
to put the giant on the ground
                              C
and the waves they don't seem so high
                                 B
from on top of them looking down
                              C
i will soar with the wings of eagles
                G
when i stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
A                 D
singing over me

Chorus 3:

                 A                          Bm
But the voice of truth tells me a different story
             G                            D
The voice of truth says do not be afraid
                 A                         Bm
And the voice of truth says this is for my glory
                      G                                      Bm
Out of all the voices calling out to me (calling out to me)
                 G                                               Bm
I will choose to listen and believe (I will choose to listen and believe)
                 G                                      D
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth
