I long for the shape of things to be true to their form
DG/D
Love in a circle, hearts in a line
AF#m7G /AG/DDC/B
Molded by sacred design
But I see a diversity of opinion unfold
Discerning masons building a wall
A/C#F#m7GAG/DDG/B
But I need help to stand, not to fall
Am/CG/B
I'm taking a road that I've never been down
Am/CD
I'm doing the best I can
Am/CG/B
I really believe I'm where I need to be now
CG/BAm7G
Tell me You understand
Chorus:
D/F#Am/CG/B
I'm following a voice in faithful pursuit
Gm/BbD/F#Bm7C2
I'm searching my soul to do what I'm called to do
DG/CDGCB
I need Your benediction, where's Your benediction
D/F#Am/CG/B
I'm battling the odds through faces of doubt
Gm/BbD/F#Bm7C2
And it would mean so much if You could send me out
DG/BCDC/B
With Your benediction, I need Your benediction
VAMP
Don't turn and close Your eyes to the vision I see
Don't leave me defenseless in fields of reproach
Now, when I need You the most
I'm taking a road that I've never been down
Tell me that You'll be there
Helping to turn a discouraging word
Into a word of prayer
CHORUS
DG/DDG/D
I need Your, I need Your, I need Your
