I’ve seen You

new
B 
Oh, it’s been
E 
rough, the storm has been
B/D# 
raging
 
And
E 
my faith is

shaken
 
I

still hear You

whisper

“I’m here with
F# 
you”

No,

You’re not mad

at me

This is a
B/D# 
love
 
I
G#m 
don’t under
F#sus 
stand

I tried to
E 
run, was caught by Your

mercy
 
No,

ever I

am
