[Verse 1]
    E    Am
Day one, drifting out at sea

D                                       E
No sign of land, no sign of hope for me

E                         Am
Rocking to and fro by the waves of complacency

D                                   E
I'm just so tired of fighting to breathe

D     E          Am
  Day two or day six, day twenty, day fifty

        D                                    E
They're all the same, nothing changes for me

E
When will I ever be rescued?

Am
When will I ever be free?

    D                              E
Oh, God, someone hear me, someone, please, yeah
[Instrumental] E D A G E D A G E D A G E D A G [Verse 2]
E
But wait, oh, but wait, there's a man

         Am
Walking above all of this that surrounds me

   D                                     E
He takes my hand, takes my heart, rips me free

       Am             D             E
Rips me free, rips me free, rips me free
[Chorus]
E         D      G  A     E        D G A
How can I ever repay You, mister?

    E          D         G   A       E     D G A
For setting my desperate soul on dry land

    E             D       G  A       E     D G A
For sending those storms away with a whisper

    E          D     G      A        E   D G A
For taking all of my burdens in Your hands

        E D G A
In Your hands, in Your hands
[Instrumental] E Am D E [Verse 3]
    E Am
Today things have most certainly changed

D                                      E
All of my pain for all God's hope exchanged

E
When will I ever be rescued?

Am
That was my desperate plea

    D                            E
And God, You heard me and set me free
[Chorus]
E         D      G  A     E       D G A
How can I ever repay You, mister?

    E          D         G   A       E     D G A
For setting my desperate soul on dry land

    E             D       G  A         E   D G A
For sending those storms away with a whisper

    E          D     G      A        E   D G A
For taking all of my burdens in Your hands

        E D G A
In Your hands, in Your hands
[Guitar solo] E D A G E D A G E D A G E D A G E D A G E D A G E [Final Chorus]
E                          Am
How can I ever repay You, mister?

     D
For setting my desperate soul on dry land

    E                                 Am
For sending those storms away with a whisper

    D
For taking all of my burdens

D                                    E
All of my burdens in Your hands
