Tom: C Verso 1 F Am I am living in a land of death C F The trees are burnt and grey F Am There's a smoldering smoke overhead C G And the night looks the same as the day F Am It seems a miracle that I can stand C F When everyone I've known F Am Drifts up in the air with the ash C G Everytime that the wind starts to blow Pré-Refrão F Am C But I feel alive with a life that's not mine F Am C G Your law is a stream in this wasteland, my lifeline Refrão F C F Am So much more than precious gold are Your promises my Lord F C G By them is Your servant warned and in keeping them great reward Verso 2 Your direction is my delight, Your law secures my roots I will meditate day and night, and in season you'll harvest the fruit Though a poison should threaten to kill, I know my Savior reigns And when the breezes of death leave a chill, I've got Jesus' blood in my veins Pré-Refrão 2 So I feel alive with a life that's not mine And I'm believing that that was your intended design Bridge F The kingdoms of man have all decayed Dm The ruins of progress have turned to waste Am The gods of greed lay in their graves G/E Darkness is everywhere F But there's a path in the dark that has emerged Dm I can see a great light beyond this curse Am A brilliant blaze that is your word G/E A beacon of hope that burns F And I focus my captivated gaze Dm On the radiant light from Jesus' face C The water of life is all I crave Em Only your word remains F So much more than precious gold Dm Is the beauty I behold C Give me the glorious reward Em Of knowing you, my King, my Lord
