(Bbmaj7)I’m

When my (Dm7)en e mies tried to come for for me, and they (Dm7)thought I that my (Gm7)world was com ing to an end, all the (Dm7)while You knew that I would make it through.
I feel (Dm7)clos er to You (Gm7)now than when I first be gan.
So (Dm7)Je sus, You are, (Gm7)(Je sus, You are,) Je sus, You are,

(Bbmaj7)I’m (Dm7)so
