If I Stand
by: Rich Mullins and Steve Cudworth
from Rich Mullins's "Songs" CD
(i capo on the FOURTH fret, this song gets HIGH!)
(Lively melody)
D A D
Well there's more that rises in the morning than the sun,
G
more that shines in the night than just the moon!
D
There's more than just this fire here that keeps me warm,
A
and a shelter that is larger than this room...
D
And there's a loyalty that is deeper than mere sentiment,
G
and a music higher than the songs that I can sing...
D D
The stuff of earth competes for the a-le-e-giance I owe only to the
Giver of all good things...
Chorus
D A
So if I stand, let me stand on the promise that You will see me
through...
G D
And if i can't let me fall on the Grace that first brought me to You!
A
And if i sing let it be for the joy that has born in me the-eese
songs...
G D
and if i weep let it be as a man who is longing fo-or his ho-ome...
Verse 2
D A D
Well there's more that dances on the prarie than the wind,
G
more that pulses in the ocean than the tide,
D
there's a love that is fiercer than the love between friends,
A
more gentle than a mother's, with her newborn by her side...
D A D
And there's a loyalty that is deeper than mere sentiment,
G
and a music higher than the songs that I can sing!
D
The stuff of earth competes for the a-le-e-giance
A
I owe only to the Giver of all good things...

Yes if I weep let it be as a man who is longing fo-or his ho-ooomme...!
