Tuning: EADGBE

Verse 1:
    E    Am
Day one, drifting out at sea
D                                       E
No sign of land, no sign of hope for me
E                         Am
Rocking to and fro by the waves of complacency
D                                   E
I'm just so tired of fighting to breathe
D     E          Am
  Day two or day six, day twenty, day fifty
        D                                    E
They're all the same, nothing changes for me
E

When will I ever be rescued?
Am
When will I ever be free?
    D                              E
Oh, God, someone hear me, someone, please, yeah

Verse 2:
E
But wait, oh, but wait, there's a man
         Am
Walking above all of this that surrounds me
   D                                     E
He takes my hand, takes my heart, rips me free
       Am             D             E
Rips me free, rips me free, rips me free

Chorus:
E         D      G  A     E        D G A
How can I ever repay You, mister?
    E          D         G   A       E     D G A
For setting my desperate soul on dry land
    E             D       G  A       E     D G A
For sending those storms away with a whisper
    E          D     G      A        E   D G A
For taking all of my burdens in Your hands
        E D G A
In Your hands, in Your hands

Verse 3:
    E Am
Today things have most certainly changed
D                                      E
All of my pain for all God's hope exchanged
E
When will I ever be rescued?
Am
That was my desperate plea
    D                            E
And God, You heard me and set me free

Chorus:
E         D      G  A     E       D G A
How can I ever repay You, mister?

For setting my desperate soul on dry land
    E             D       G  A         E   D G A
For sending those storms away with a whisper
    E          D     G      A        E   D G A
For taking all of my burdens in Your hands
        E D G A
In Your hands, in Your hands

E                          Am
How can I ever repay You, mister?

For setting my desperate soul on dry land
    E                                 Am
For sending those storms away with a whisper

For taking all of my burdens
D                                    E
