Great song. I saw this on the wish list and decided I should give a

little back since I've taken dozens of songs from this group over the

years.

Special thanks to Cindy Rodriguez for her easy chord system and great

ear. Also, thanks to Jeff Johnson, Jeff Wheeler, and Matt Taylor for

the fun jamming sessions with this and other songs.

The main riff to this song is just C and F repeated over and over.

You can play it open but there is an electric guitar playing barred

chords up on the 8th fret. Sounds great with one guitar playing

open (acoustic) and the other barring (electric)

C F C F C F C

I see a hand reaching out to help me

C F C F C F C

but I don't understand all of Your ways

C F C

You are still the potter and I am just the clay

F

And though I know at times I am too proud

C F C

To reach for You, to help me out

G F

But if I waited on myself to get it right

C F C

I would be waiting here forever

*Chorus*

F

But Your grace is never gonna to change

C

And Your faith always will remain

G F C F C

And Your love is the same yesterday, today, and forever

*End Chorus*

I see a world looking for an answer but I don't know what for

When will we realize that we're

sinners in the hands of a loving God who came and died

And wants to set us free

Oh how He longs to be with you and me

But if we waited on the truth to change at all

We would be waiting here forever

*Repeat Chorus*

I see Your hand reaching out to help me

But I don't understand all of Your ways

but you saved me, I thank You Jesus

*Repeat Chorus*
