Wilderness

Michael Card


Tom: C

         C    G
In the wilderness
         F    C
In the wilderness
     F                   C
He calls his sons and daughters
         Am   G
To the wilderness
              C          G
And he gives grace sufficient
     C        Am
to survive any test
     F                     C              G    C      
And that's the painfull purpose of the wilderness
                        

          C           G
In the wilderness we wander
          F           C
In the wilderness we weep
          F           C
The wasteland of our wanting
          Am                 G
Where the darkness seems so deep
     C               G                Am       G
We search for the beginning, for an exodus to hold
     F               C                    G          C
We find that those who follow him, must often walk alone


Chorus

          C               G
In the wilderness we're wandering
          F         C
for a way to understand
          F                C 
In the wilderness there's not a way
        Am               G
for the way to become a man
 C               G         Am          G
and become the exodus, the way to holy ground
        F             C    Am          G              C
But wandering in the wilderness is the best way to be found


Chorus

    C          G       F                C
Groaning and growing amidst the desert days
    F            C     Am        G             C
the windy winter wilderness can blow the self away


Chorus

      F                    Am           G     C
And that's the painfull promise of the wilderness
