1. If I could have the world and all it owns
C Em6 Am D7
A thousand kingdoms, a thousand thrones
Em C D7 G C D7 G
If all the earth were mine to own, with wealth my only goal
G D C G
I'd spend my gold on selfish things
C Em6 Am7 D7
Without the love that your life brings
Em Am7 D7 G C Am7 G
Just a "little bit more" was all I'd need 'til life was torn from me.
CHORUS
C Bm Em D7 Em6 D7
I'd rather be in the palm of your hand
C Am7 G
Though rich or poor I may be.
C Bm Em D7 Em6 D7 ?
Faith can see right through the circumstance;
A A7 D7 C D7
Sees the forest in spite of the trees.
C Em6 Am7 G
[CODA] Your grace provides for me.
[BREAK] G D C G C Em6 Am D7 Em C D7 G C D7 G

2. If I should walk the streets, no place to sleep,
C Em6 Am7 D7
No faith in promises you keep.
Em C D7 G C D7 G
I'd have no way to buy my bread with a Bible for my bed.
G D C G C Em6 Am7 D7
But if I trust the one who died for me, Who shed His blood to set me free
Em Am7 D7 G C Am7 G
If I live my life to trust in you, your grace will see me through.
