words and music by Mitch McVicker and Rich Mullins
GC
Your word is plain as the nose upon my face
GC
And it will remain when all else fades away
EmCD
And in the midst of change there's one thing that stays the same
GC
So I walk by faith though I'm scared to even hope
GC
That I can learn to love as my heart unfolds
EmD
But sometimes I just need an angel
CD
To tell me not to be afraid
Chorus
EmGC
>From out of nowhere from out of the blue
DEm
These clouds like holy prophets groan and move
GC
On the winds of love and rage
EmGC
So come Lord and wash me clean in your psalm
DEm
Until it sinks deep down into my bones
GC
As I stand in the gentle fall
G
Of the gospel rain
GC
And every leaf that falls is a kind of burning bush
GC
And I can hear your call when I stop to look
EmD
You tell me you're there whatever happens
CD
And I hear the trees clappin' their hands
Chorus
(capo 2nd fret for key change)
GC
And the word you speak is in the air I breathe
GCD
It reaches deep and somethin' moves inside of me
Chorus
