Lyrics

(Am)Lord, You seem so far a way,

But I (F)don’t know what to say

and I (C)don’t know where to start.

But (F)as You give the grace,

I will sing,

I will praise.

I will sing.

(Am)Lord, it’s hard for me to see

a (F)all the thoughts and plans You have for me,

but (Am)I will put my trust in You,

Easy piano arrangement in the key of C at 110 BPM. Difficulty: medium. Color-coded notes — no sheet-reading skill required.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great way to develop your sus-chord fluency — moving between C and Csus2, or G and Gsus2, means your fingers need to lift and replace single notes cleanly while keeping the rest of the chord anchored, so practice those shifts slowly in isolation until they feel effortless.

At 110 BPM the tempo is moderate, but the melancholic ballad feel demands smooth, connected playing, so keep your sustain pedal changes precise — lift and re-press right on each chord change to avoid muddy overlap, especially when moving from F to G where the bass jumps.

Your left hand uses a mixed bass pattern, so expect some measures with single roots and others with broken intervals; drill hands separately first, then combine at around 80 BPM before working up to tempo.

Watch the Am to Em7 transition — your pinky tends to arrive late on that one, so loop it.

This is the piece that will make sus voicings feel like second nature in your playing.
