8  Be My Clear Direction

Psalm 86.  I felt down and depressed and I  turned to God in prayer, and He strengthened me.

 He turned my sadness into this song. Through Him, all things are possible.

 He’s only a prayer away and no matter what, He loves you.

G     C  G7

     C                              G                     Am

Today the road’s been tough and I am weary

                    F                    C                             G   G7

And I don’t want to be involved, just close my mind.

                 C                      C7                  F                    Dm

Want the world to go away, and want to fight another day,

               C                           Dm             G        G7

And I’ve even thought I’d leave it all behind.

Ch:

            C                           G                      Am

Be my Lord, my God, my King, help me have ~ patience.

                F                   C                              G               G7

Help me listen to your voice and know your way for me.

                 C              C7              F                 Dm

Please be all that I desire, be my~  clear direction.

              C                         Dm                 G

And my light both in the night and the day.

            C                      G                 Am

You remind me of the sad and lonely people,

           F                    C                          G   G7

And I want to be of help, not close my mind.

                 C               C7                        F                 Dm

Want the cloud to go away and want to show a better way.

            C                        Dm                  G        G7

And I know that I can’t leave it all behind. (chorus)

      C                              G                     Am

Today you’ve turned my face away from my life,

                F                    C                          G   G7

And with you I can give help, not close my mind,

                 C                  C7                          F                           Dm

For the cloud has gone away, replaced by strength to face the day,

           C                   Dm                   G        G7

And I know I can go on with you behind. (chorus)
