If I raise my hands just to lift the shade
DG
Will I reveal a sky heavy and grey?
DC
Will last night be a memory sweetly fading?
BmC
How I hate a morning starting out this way
Am
On theese lonely raging mornings
Em
I would whip You if I could
G
But Your on the mighty side of strong
C
And the perfect side of good
DC
If I raise my hands will you grab me by the wrist?
DG
And will You try to pull me from the fray?
DC
and even if my fingers joined together into fist
BmC
will you hold me firmly anyway?
AmEm
but I would try to escape you but for every day Im sure
GC
that Your on the huge side of big and the holy side of pure
DCEmD
OK hear what I say as I raise my hands in surrender today
CGEmCDCBmC
Ok here I will stay hands in the air singing have Thine own way
DC
if I raise my hands so weak and thin and frail
DG
will You reveal the light of mercy in Your eyes
D C0
if I cry to you faintly will my feeble whisper fail
BmC
or will it find its way to a reply
AmEm
because now that Im exhausted I think Im ready to admit
GC
that I have spent all my resistance on someone I cant resist
DCEmD
OK hear what I say because I raise my hands in surrender today
CGEm (CDEmB 3x)
Ok here I will stay hands in the air singing have Thine own way
EmCEm
Light from my window sill make my way to the door
EmCEm
I Hang my head and still I know Your wanting more
EmCEm
over the threshold now I move across the yard
EmCEm
although my will allows my every step is hard
EmCEm
now in the garden now I carve out six feet of space
CEm
there make my will comply lie down upon my face
CEm
been toe to toe to long Im tired of fighting you
CEm
I see You were to strong cause I am black and blue
CEm
but now I understand a losers due to win
CEm
how evry dying man is sure to rise again
CEm
so I raise my left hand one I raise my right hand two
C
Under the morning sun my spirit cries to You
DCEmD
OK hear what I say because I raise my hands in surrender today

Right here under the sun hands in the air singing Thy will be done
DCEmC
IM here under the sun hands in the air singing Thy will be done
GEmC
Ok here I will stay hands in the air singing have Thine own way
EmC

Em
