Isaiah 40 verses 27-31
[Chorus]
G D C
<b>Do you not know? Have you not heard?</b>
D G
<b>The Lord is the everlasting God,</b>
D C
<b>the Creator of the ends of the earth.</b>
D G
<b>He will not grow tired or weary,</b>
D C
<b>... and His understanding ...</b>
D G
<b>... no one can fathom. ... He gives</b>
D C
<b>strength to the weary and increases</b>
D G
<b>the power of the weak.</b>
D C D
... ... ...
[1st stanza]
Em D
<b>Why do you say, O Jacob,</b>
D Em
<b>and complain, O Israel,</b>
Em D
<b>"My way is hidden from the Lord;</b>
Em D
<b>( Why do you say, O Jacob,</b>
D Em
<b>and complain, O Israel, )</b>
Em D
<b>my cause is disregarded by my God"?</b>
|
[Chorus]
[2nd stanza]
Em D
<b>Even youths grow tired and weary,</b>
Em D
<b>and young men stumble and fall;</b>
Em D
<b>Even youths grow tired and weary,</b>
Em D
<b>and young men stumble and fall;</b>
[Bridge]
[3rd stanza]
G D C
<b>but those who hope in the Lord</b>
D G
<b>will renew their strength.</b>
D C
<b>They will soar on wings</b>
D G
<b>like eagles; ...</b>
D C
<b>they will run and not</b>
D G
<b>(not) grow weary,</b>
D C D
<b>they will walk and not be faint.</b>
[Chorus]

- Note: I recorded this song in the key of C, but the chords above are in G. If I hired a real singer it would be better, but in the mean time ... wow, this is fun. All verses taken verbatim from the New International Version of the Word of God - Isaiah 40 verses 27-31.
