              F 
The sky was falling and streaked with blood 
  
I heard you calling me, then you disappeared into the dust 
       Bb               F 
Up the stairs, into the fire 
       Bb               F 
Up the stairs, into the fire 
                                                     Bb 
I need your kiss, but love and duty called you someplace higher 
                                  F 
Somewhere up the stairs, into the fire 
  
         Bb             
May your strength give us strength 
         F 
May your faith give us faith 
         C 
May your hope give us hope 
         F 
May your love bring us love 
         Bb 
May your strength give us strength 
         F 
May your faith give us faith 
         C 
May your hope give us hope 
         Bb                 F 
May your love bring us love 
  
  
You gave your love to see, in fields of red and autumn brown 
  
You gave your love to me and lay your young body down 
       Bb               F   
Up the stairs, into the fire 
       Bb               F   
Up the stairs, into the fire 
                                                    Bb 
I need you near, but love and duty called you someplace higher 
                        C         F 
Somewhere up the stairs, into the fire 
  
  
         Bb             
May your strength give us strength 
         F 
May your faith give us faith 
         C 
May your hope give us hope 
         F 
May your love bring us love 
         Bb 
May your strength give us strength 
         F 
May your faith give us faith 
         C 
May your hope give us hope 
         F 
May your love bring us love 
         Bb 
May your strength give us strength 
         F 
May your faith give us faith 
         C 
May your hope give us hope 
         Bb 
May your love bring us love 
  
  
  
It was dark, too dark to see, you held me in the light you gave 
  
You lay your hand on me 
  
Then walked into the darkness of your smoky grave 
       Bb               F 
Up the stairs, into the fire 
       Bb               F 
Up the stairs, into the fire 
                                                     Bb 
I need your kiss, but love and duty called you someplace higher 
                        C         F 
Somewhere up the stairs, into the fire 
  
  
         Bb             
May your strength give us strength 
         F 
May your faith give us faith 
         C 
May your hope give us hope 
         F 
May your love bring us love 
         Bb             
May your strength give us strength 
         F 
May your faith give us faith 
         C 
May your hope give us hope 
         F 
May your love bring us love 
         Bb 
May your love bring us love
