INTRO - D A E F# (2ce the speed of the verse)
D A
I bow my head to pray, I don't know what to say
E F#
I'm not sure how to fix the things I'm dealing with
D A
I'm in a desperate place, I need to share the weight
E F#
But I just don't know how, to let it all pour out
D A
Though I'm silent, my heart is crying
E F#
Cause I was made to come to You

D
So I pray
E F# D
God I need You more than words can say
E F#
Right here in this moment
D E
You know my heart, You know my need
F#
You know every part of me
Bm D
So even if it's just to speak Your name
D A E F#
I'm gonna pray
D A
I failed to find the time, but You've been calling out
E F#
I let the days go by as if I could live without
D A
But it's gotta be here now, I won't be pulled away
E F#
Cause it's just You and I, so let the world around us fade
D
So I pray
E F# D
God I need You more than words can say
E F#
Right here in this moment
D E
You know my heart, You know my need
F#
You know every part of me
Bm D
So even if it's just to speak Your name
D A E F#
I'm gonna pray
D
(Father)
E F
I’m in a desperate place
D
(Father)
E F
I know you can bear the weight
D
(Father)
E F
Take me in your arms
As I Speak your name
(Chorus to fade out)
