IF I STAND
Words by rich mullins



         C              Em               Am 
There's more that rises in the morning than the sun
          F              D                   G
More that shines in the night than just the moon
         F                   G               C   Em   Am 
There's more than just this fire here that keeps me warm
     D                                G
In a shelter that is larger than this room


Bridge
             C            Em                Am 
There's a loyalty that's deeper than mere sentiment
         F              D                G
A music higher than the songs that I can sing
      F              G              C  Em  Am 
The stuff of earth competes for the allegiance
      D                             G
I owe only to the giver of all good things


Chorus
          Am           F           Am           F                  G
So if I stand let me stand on the promise that you will pull me through
          Am           F           Am                G           C
And if I can't let me fall on the grace that first brought me to you
      Am           F          Am             F                G
If I sing let me sing for the joy that has born in me these songs
          Am         F        Am          G               C
But if I weep let it be as a man who is longing for his home


         C                Em               Am 
There's more that dances on the prairies than the wind
           F              D             G
More that pulses in the ocean than the tide
            F            G                C     Em     Am 
There's a love that is fiercer than the love between friends
      D                                             G
More gentle than a mother's when her baby's at her side

Bridge
