G
     G              C              G      
If my prayer be not humble make it so

         G                                       D7             C
In these last hours if the Spirit waits in check help me let it go

     Em                 G             B7             C
And should my suffering double let me never love You less

    G                        D7          G
Let every knee be bent, and every tongue confess

      D         D7             C            G
And I won't get better but someday I'll be free

           D        D7          C       G
Cause I am not this body that imprisons me

  G            C               G
I read the magazines somebody brought

G                              D7               C
Hold them to my failing eyes until my hands get hot

    Em                   G      B7                   C
And when the nurse comes in to change my sheets and clothes

     G                    D7              G
The pain begins to travel, dancing as it goes

      D         D7             C            G
And I won't get better but someday I'll be free

           D        D7          C       G
Cause I am not this body that imprisons me
E7 Am7 D7 G x4
    G               C                   G
If my prayer goes unanswered that's alright

    G                                    D7            C
If my path fills with darkness and there is no sign of light

       Em                 G                 B7                C
Let me praise You for the good times, let me hold Your banner high

G                                     D7             G
Until the hills are flattened and the rivers all run dry

      D         D7             C            G
And I won't get better but someday I'll be free

           D        D7          C       G
Cause I am not this body that imprisons me
E7 Am7 D7 G x2
