[Verse 1]
         C             G/B
You have led me to the sadness
         Am7        Fmaj7
I have carried this pain
     C                    G/B
on a back bruised, nearly broken
    Am7           Fmaj7
I'm crying out to You

[Chorus]
       C
I will sing of Your mercy
     G/B                         Am7
that leads me through valleys of sorrow
             Fmaj7
to rivers of joy

[Verse 2]
     C             G/B
when death, like a gypsy
         Am7          Fmaj7
comes to steal what i love
       C                 G/B
I will still look to the heavens
       Am7             Fmaj7
I will still seek your face
      C               G/B
but I fear You aren't listening
        Am7          Fmaj7
because there are no words
         C                 G/B
just the stillness and the hunger
      Am7        Fmaj7
for a faith that assures

[Chorus]
       C
I will sing of Your mercy
     G/B                         Am7
that leads me through valleys of sorrow
             Fmaj7
to rivers of joy

C   G/B  Am7     Fmaj7
alleluia, alleluia
C  G/B   Am7     Fmaj7
alleluia, alleluia

[Verse 3]
         C        G/B
while we wait for rescue
         Am7          Fmaj7
with our eyes tightly shut
            C                G/B
face to the ground using our hands
   Am7                 Fmaj7
to cover the fatal cut
           C          G/B
though the pain is an ocean
        Am7        Fmaj7
tossing us around, around, around
         C              G/B
You have calmed greater waters
       Am7                 Fmaj7
higher mountains have come down

[Chorus]
       C
I will sing of Your mercy
     G/B                         Am7
that leads me through valleys of sorrow
             Fmaj7
to rivers of joy
