Lyrics

So man y (Ab)ques tions; the world is (Absus)reach (Ab)ing.

So man y (Ab)hurt ing, (Dbsus2)so man y (Ab)lost.

With all this (Ab)striv ing, who can we (Absus)lean (Ab)on?

Cre a tion’s (Ab)cry ing (Dbsus2)out from the (Ab)dark.

I know the an swer to ev ’ry (Ab)ques tion, the one so (Ab)lu tion to ev ’ry (Ebsus)fear.

I know my help and where it comes (Ab)from.

(Db)Je (Ab)sus, He is the (Ebsus)an (Fm7)swer.

He sees (Ab)our sad ness, He feels (Ab)our sor row, and in (Ab)our weak ness, (Dbsus2)He is (Ab)strong.

He holds (Ab)the weight of all of (Ab)our fail ings.

Great is (Ab)our sin, but (Db)great er the (Ab)cross.

I know the an swer to ev (Ab)’ry ques tion, the one (Ab)so lu tion to ev (Ebsus)’ry fear.

I know my help and where it (Ab)comes from.

(Db)Je sus, He is the (Ebsus)an (Ab)swer.

For ev ’ry heart that’s break ing, for ev ’ry soul that’s shak ing, for ev ’ry sick ness, there’s (Ab)heal ing in Your hands.

Let ev ’ry heart a wak en to see it’s You who saves us.

You are my hope, and the (Eb)rock on which I stand.

You are the an swer to ev (Ab)’ry ques tion, the one so (Ab)lu tion to ev ’ry (Ebsus)fear.

You are my help and where it comes from.

Je (Ab)sus, You are the (Eb)an (Fm7)swer.

(Ab)Oh, (Db)Je (Ab)sus, You are the (Eb)an (Ab)swer.

You are the an wer,

You are the an swer.

You are the (Eb)an swer.
