Tom: G

G
I am a seeker a poor sinful creature 
            C             G
There is no weaker than I am 
 
I am a seeker you are a teacher 
          C                D7
You are a reacher so reach down 
 
[chorus]
G                     C            G
Reach out and lead me guide me and keep me 
                                 D7 G
In the shelter of your care each d--ay 
 
Cause I am a seeker you are a keeper 
    C       G                D7          G
You are the leader won't you show me the way
     
 [verse]
I am a vessel that's empty and useless
  C    G             C           G
I am a bad seed that fell by the way 
 
I am a loser that wants to be a winner 
    C      G         D7            G
You are my last hope don't turn me away
     
[verse]

[outro]
                     C                   G
Oh I know you are a mountain from which there flows a fountain 
     
So let its water wash my sins away 
 
Cause I am a seeker you are a keeper 
    C       G                D7          G
You are the leader won't you show me the way
