[Verse 1]
         D               G    D
Father, hear me now when I am humbled
    D       G            G
I fear that I will soon forget
       D                     A        Bm
Now I have no strength to stand and stumble
   D        G       A        D
I have no wish to leave you yet


[Chorus 1]
   G            A       D
O Holy Father, hear me now
      D         G          A     Bm
When flesh is strong and spirit weak
         G                 A    Bm
Please break my back if I won't bow
      D    G         A       D   D G Bm
Won't you have your way with me


[Verse 2]
         D               G      D
Father, hear me now when I am humbled
     D     G               G
When I am bent with holy shame
         D               A           Bm
All the lies that I believed have crumbled
       D       G        A     D
The blood of Christ my only claim


[Chorus 2]
    G              A     D
I cannot trust my own designs
     D        G        A  Bm
My heart is prone to disobey
     G                   A       Bm
So listen, Lord, while there is time
  D       G      A         Bm
Chain me fast if I won't stay
 Bm      G       A          D D G Bm
Take my life and have your way

D D A G


[Chorus 3]
        G                     A     D
Please hear me, Lord, this blessed hour
      D         G        A      Bm
When sin has loosed its hold on me
      G           A    Bm
Thy mercy is a mighty tower
    D         G       A       Bm
So why should I not trust in thee?
  Bm      G        A        D D G D
Father, have your way with me
