Intro:  Am7  G  C  F  (2x) 
 
Am7         G    C           G 
Pain is a forest we all get lost in 
Am7          G        C              F 
Between the branches hope can be so hard to see 
Am7         G        C              G 
And in the darkness we've all got questions 
Am7             G         C                  F 
We're all just trying to make sense out of suffering but 
 
Am7     G  C                F 
   You say I am blessed because of this 
  Am7    G          F 
So,  I choose to believe 
       F               G 
As I carry this cross,  
             Am7  G  C  F  
You'll carry me 
 
Am7         G     C            G 
Fear is a current we all get caught in 
Am7         G       C              F 
And in its motion faith can be so hard to find 
Am7         G     C                 G 
And we all falter 'cause we're all broken 
Am7            G          C                F 
We're all just trying to turn the shadows into light but 
 
Am7    G    C           F 
  You get glory in the midst of this 
   Am7       G           F 
And  You're walking with me 
    Am7  G  C               F 
And You say I am blessed because of this 
 Am7    G          F 
So, I choose to believe 
F                      G 
As I carry this cross,  
             Am7 
You'll carry me 
 
       G          C           F  
And I know Your promises are faithful 
    Am7        G         C              F  
And God, I've seen Your goodness in my life 
   Am7         G         C          F  
And oh, I've found Your mercy is a river 
Am7              F     G 
Your love is an ocean wide 
 
Am7 G   C               F        Am7  C  G 
You say I am blessed because of this 
 
 
 
Am7  G    C           F 
You get glory in the midst of this 
  Am7       G           F 
And You're walking with me 
    Am7  G  C                F 
And You say I am blessed because of this 
  Am7    G          F 
So,  I choose to believe 
      F               G       Am7             G 
As I carry this cross,  as I carry this cross 
             F               G 
'Cause as I carry this cross,    
                           
You'll carry me             
 
Am7  G  C  F (3x) 
 
(You'll carry me, God 
You'll carry me) 
 
     Am7            F      G 
And Your love is an ocean wide?
