     G                           D 
When I was just a little boy, I wandered thru the woods 
C                            G 
Searchin' for daddy thru the pines 
G                              D 
Guess I took a wrong turn somewhere along the way 
        C                            D 
But the Bible said seek and ye shall find 
C                             G                  Em 
Daylight turned to darkness, adventure turned to fear 
       C                G 
When I finally found my way back home 
    C                   D 
His words I still could hear 
 
      G                         D 
Stand still, when you're in the dark 
               C                     D 
Listen to your heart, pray for God's will 
       G                   D 
Stand still, adrift in the wind 
               C                       D 
Your voice within will be your best friend 
      C           D          G 
Stand still, and pray, stand still 
 
 
INTRO 
 
G                              D 
Now that I'm a grown man on my own and on my way 
C                      G 
Got my decisions to be made 
G                                                D 
When I'm at the crossroads, un for sure and unforseen 
C                                    D 
I bow my head and with these words I pray
