Verse 1:
Am                           F           C     Em     G
How can a world so beautiful be so cold, be so cruel
Am                   F             C   Cadd4 - Em
Sometimes love just seems so far away
Am               F              C                Em       G
Suffering is no stranger here; breaks my heart, feeds my fear
Am                  F           C    Cadd4 - Em
Trying to steal my hope and my faith
Dm                           F
But I believe You when You say

Chorus 1:

You are near, whenever I feel alone

I’m not on my own
                    F
God I know You’re standing here
         C                              Gm
You are near, when all the world seems dark
                  Dm                                     F
Still I know You are the light that will always find me here

You are near

Verse 2:
Am                     F            C             Em      G
Father we know You’re here with us, in our tears, in this dust
Am                       F                   C    Cadd4 - Em
Reaching them where sometimes we just can’t see
Am                   F           C                Em       G
You never leave and never will; Your love saves, does not fail
   Am                 F         C   Cadd4 - Em
So lead us to be the hands and feet
Dm                      F
Until the whole world sees

We will never be forsaken now
Am                              F
You’re alive and hope is risen; hearts restored, and I’m forgiven
C                      G
Love is here to stay; love is here to stay

We’re not on our own
