 <br/>
     G                   D         C      G<br/>
 1.  If I could have the world and all it owns <br/>
       C        Em6         Am       D7<br/>
     A thousand kingdoms, a thousand thrones<br/>
        Em      C          D7      G         C         D7   G<br/>
     If all the earth were mine to own, with wealth my only goal<br/>
         G        D       C       G<br/>
     I'd spend my gold on selfish things<br/>
         C       Em6       Am7       D7<br/>
     Without the love that your life brings<br/>
             Em         Am7       D7      G         C        Am7       G<br/>
     Just a "little bit more" was all I'd need 'til life was torn from me.<br/>
 <br/>
 CHORUS<br/>
     C          Bm        Em      D7   Em6 D7<br/>
     I'd rather be in the palm of your hand<br/>
     C              Am7        G<br/>
     Though rich or poor I may be.<br/>
     C             Bm                Em D7 Em6 D7 ?<br/>
     Faith can see right through the circumstance;<br/>
              A         A7           D7     C D7<br/>
     Sees the forest in spite of the trees.<br/>
                 C        Em6   Am7 G<br/>
     [CODA] Your grace provides for me.<br/>
 <br/>
     [BREAK] G   D   C   G   C   Em6 Am  D7  Em  C   D7  G   C   D7  G   <br/>
             |...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|<br/>
 <br/>
                 G        D           C        G<br/>
 2.  If I should walk the streets, no place to sleep,<br/>
        C        Em6  Am7     D7<br/>
     No faith in promises you keep.<br/>
         Em      C      D7     G            C     D7     G<br/>
     I'd have no way to buy my bread with a Bible for my bed.<br/>
              G         D       C        G       C        Em6      Am7    D7<br/>
     But if I trust the one who died for me, Who shed His blood to set me free<br/>
          Em      Am7     D7       G         C          Am7    G<br/>
     If I live my life to trust in you, your grace will see me through.<br/>
