Faith To Be Strong

E A E A


[Verse 1]
           E
Give us faith to be strong
         A         B
Father, we are so weak
       A           B         A B
Our bodies are fragile and weary
          E          A         C#m           B
As we stagger and stumble to walk where you lead
          A     B     E
Give us faith to be strong


[Chorus]
           E
Give us faith to be strong
           A               B
Give us strength to be faithful
       A          D              A
This life is not long, but it's hard
           E         A
Give us grace to go on
           C#m        B
Make us willing and able
  C#m           B            E
Lord, give us faith to be strong

E A B


[Verse 2]
          E
Give us peace when we're torn
         A            B
Mend us up when we break
        C#m           B           A  B
This flesh can be wounded and shaking
               E             A          C#m           B
When there's much too much trouble for one heart to take
          A       B      E
Give us peace when we're torn


[Chorus]
           E
Give us faith to be strong
           A               B
Give us strength to be faithful
       A          D              A
This life is not long, but it's hard
           E         A
Give us grace to go on
           C#m        B
Make us willing and able
  C#m           B            C#m
Lord, give us faith to be strong

[Verse 3]
          E
Give us hearts to find hope
         A
Father, we cannot see
          C#m      B              A  B
How the sorrow we feel can bring freedom
         E          D              C#m         B
And as hard as we try, Lord, it's hard to believe
               A        C#m  B
So, give us hearts to find hope


[End Chorus]
           E
Give us faith to be strong

Give us strength to be faithful
       A          D              A
This life is not long, but it's hard
           E         A
Give us grace to go on
           C#m        B
Make us willing and able
  A              E          B
Lord, give us faith to be strong
          A          E    B
Give us peace when we're torn
           A B               E
Give us faith, faith to be strong
