I've [C]spent some days looking for a length of rope
And a [Am]place to hang it from the end of my hope
But where I [F]thought hope had ended I always find a little bit [C]more
It?s [C]not like I'm trying to be optimistic
If the [Am]truth be told I'd rather dismiss it
And be [F]free of the burden of the living that hoping [C]requires[G]
To [F]bring my [C]heart
To [Am]every [G]day
And [C]run the risk of fearlessly [F]loving
Without running [C]away
[C]Jesus is speaking but it's so hard to hear
When [Am]disciples with swords are cutting off ears
[F]Broken and bleeding I'm waiting for healing to [C]come[G]
But [C]wounded's a part that I've learned to play well
Though the [Am]wound may run deeper than I know how to tell
Where [F]pain's an addiction that keeps me buried [C]alive
But when it's [F]all that I know I'm afraid to leave it [C]behind[G]
And [F]bring my [C]heart
To [Am]every [G]day
And [C]run the risk of fearlessly [F]loving
Without running [C]away
My [Am]heart is not lifted [F]up
My [C]eyes are not lifted [G]up
But [Am]calm and [F]quiet is my [C]soul[G]
Like a [Am]child with its [F]mother is my [C]soul[G]
After a [C]while in the dark your eyes will adjust
In the [Am]shadows you'll find the hand you can trust
And the [F]still small voice that calls like the rising [C]sun
[G]Come
And [F]bring your [C]heart
To [Am]every [G]day
[C]Run the risk of fearlessly [F]loving
Without running [Am]away[G]
You must [Am]run the risk of fearlessly [F]loving
Without running [G]away
And a [Am]place to hang it from the end of my hope
But where I [F]thought hope had ended I always find a little bit [C]more
It?s [C]not like I'm trying to be optimistic
If the [Am]truth be told I'd rather dismiss it
And be [F]free of the burden of the living that hoping [C]requires[G]
To [F]bring my [C]heart
