I Can Only Try

A song that I'm yet to write the accompaniment to.

Verse1:

DM

Morning sun is cold,

              AM

There's a rising hope

            GM           AMm7   DM

That my future has fin'lly won.

          f#m

By the dawn

GM/B           DM   AMM7/E

Past   the ho-ri---zon,

         d-half-dim.7

I can see              the

AM7/E           DM

Mountains of        green.

 

Verse 2:

 

In the warmth of noon,

Lord, I thank you

For the life

You've giv'n anew

For the world has

things against me;

I can see the

AM7/E    DM

Buds of        spring.

 

Chorus 1:

[bm]        bm    f#m  AM

I can only try   to     live-

[DM]     DM

I give it all I can;

[bm]   bm-DM6  AM/E

I live   by         faith.

[DM}       DM

Help me persevere,

bm                     AM

Help my heart to hear the

[a capella]

Whispers of your heart.

 

Verse 3:

 

Through the darkest night and

The pains of rain

Hold me close

So I won't die;

Help me not to

Run away or

Give in to the

Weights of discrace.

 

Chorus 2:

 

I could only try to live-

I gave it all I could;

I still live by faith.

Help me persevere,

Help my mind to gear,

Help my heart to hear.

Forgive me,

Show me grace and truth;

Please save me from the

Things that draw me from you.

Help me,

Guide me,

Sustain me,

Humble me;

I want to love you.
