              Verse1: 
        C       F            C 
Through trials, troubles and care 
            C        F         C 
I know that Jesus my savior is there 
          C             F       C  
Giving me faith through darkest days 
F          C      G      C 
Keeping me on the narrow way 
 
F     C       F            C 
Jesus savior, help me each day 
             G                  C 
Fill me with hope, fill me with faith 
                         F             C 
Darkness retreats at the touch of Your hand 
F     C       G          C 
Jesus savior, help me to stand 
 
Verse2: 
Jesus lived through darkest pain 
Rejected by men, despising the shame 
Man of sorrows, acquainted with grief 
He gave his life so we may be free 
(Chorus) 
 
Verse3: 
I know that Jesus died for me 
Cancelled my debt at Calvary 
Rose from the dead, unlocked Heaven's door 
Trust in his love and live evermore 
(Chorus)
