G D When I stumble, when I fall Em C You’re the rock I cling to, Lord of all G D Through the storm, through the night Em C Your mercy covers me, Your love my light

G D When the shadows press me down Em C I hear Your voice, it lifts me off the ground G D Through the fire, through the rain Em C Your grace sustains me, breaks every chain

G D You never fail, You never fade Em C Your love remains, it’s never changed G D You lift me up, You make me whole Em C Jesus, You have my soul
[Bridge]
Am Em Hallelujah, You are here C G Hallelujah, I feel You near Am Em Every promise You’ve made is true C D Forever, Lord, I worship You

transitions.

Bridge/Pre-Solo Licks
Bend notes slightly to emulate the soulful Third Day sound.

Solo (Over Chorus / Bridge)
Structure: Use over G – D – Em – C progression
Focus on expressive bends (like 8b10 = bend 8th fret to pitch of 10th fret).
• Use vibrato on longer notes for that emotional Third Day feel.
• Play lightly during verses; hit stronger for chorus/bridge for intensity.
