Intro: Gb  B  Gb


          B           E                  B
You were cold as the blood through your bones
         E               B                Abm
And the light which led us from our chosen homes
   E        B
Well I was lost


           B
And now I sleep
           E              B
Sleep the hours and that I don't weep
        E                B                 Abm
When all I knew was steeped in blackened holes
 E     B
I was lost

Mm   mm   mm  mm
E   Abm   E   Abm   Gb   B

Chorus:
Abm      E       B       Gb
Keep the earth below my feet
Abm      E       B          Gb
For all my sweat, my blood runs weak
Abm      E       B          Gb
Let me learn from where I have been
        E          Abm     E           B
Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn
Gb       E          Abm     E           B
Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn


        B
So I was still
     E              B
I was under your spell
       E             B            Abm
When I was told by Jesus all was well
     E          B
So all must be well


              B
Just give me time
         E                B
You know your desires and mine
         E         B           Abm
Wrap my flesh in ivory and in twine
   E           B
For I must be well

Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn
Gb       E          Abm     E           B
Keep my eyes to serve and hands to learn
