I'm Looking Ahead

Chorus:

                        C            Em                  F     G 

I'm looking ahead to that glorious city

                                      C        

Where I'll shake the hands 

       Em                                 F          G

Of those who've gone before me

                   F            

I can still feel 

                    G                              Am          F

The same tender hand that's carrying me

                         C              G                              C   

Will lead me home so Lord I'm looking ahead

Verse 1:

Am               G               C     

Living in a world of insanity

                   Am                      G                     C         

We're surrounded by the dead they are all asleep

        Am                         G   

But under the Easter seal

                                  C                           

Thank God we're quickened and awakened

  F                 D                                        G    

Now the master is here the Son has risen

                C                                    Em         

He's no longer the hidden Messiah 

        F               Em 

But he has appeared

                       F                   Em              

Now to the promise of a second coming 

Bb                     G

  I'm looking ahead

Verse 2:

      Am       G                     C      

So many among us are hurting

                Am                      G                                   C    

They're wounded in the battle, Lord they are dying

                 Am                         G                                 

Brothers take each others hand 

             C

Sisters do the same thing too

 F                              D                       G              

Lift each other in prayer we will make it through

                         C                                                Em  

And though skin worms may destroy this body

                 F                                       Em 

I've got another one waiting for me

               F                                     Em        

So Lord fill my soul with your Holy Ghost

 Bb                                          G    

Cleanse me and make me wholE
