verse 1 
D 
Look at the stars, hung in the sky 
                        G 
Who put them there? Who gives them light? 
                D 
No ocean deep, Could hold His grace 
                  G 
Follow His lead, and He'll make a way 
                    D 
He broke the fall when He rose from the grave 
                      G 
He changed it all in a matter of days 
                 Bm 
No matter how great the problem we face 
                 G 
We gotta remember, he stays the same 

 
                 D 
When you just can't face tomorrow 
                     G 
When you're down deep in the sorrow 
                  Bm 
When your faith is on the edge, don't be afraid to step 
           G 
Cause even if you'll fail to fly 
                             D 
He'll catch you by surprise! 
                              G 
He'll catch you by surprise! 

verse 2 
                D 
Don't be afraid, stand on your feet 
                     G 
His hands of love, hold everything 
                    D    
All that we know, can't comprehend 
                   G 
His perfect will, and His perfect plan 

 
                    D 
So when you just can't face tomorrow   
          G 
When you're down deep in the sorrow 
                  Bm 
When your faith is on the edge, don't be afraid to step 
           G 
Cause even if you'll fail to fly 
                             D 
He'll catch you by surprise! 
                              G 
He'll catch you by surprise! 


Bridge 
                     A 
When you're fading in the fight 
                                           G 
He'll catch you by surprise o-oh 

And He won't let go 
             A 
He will turn the dark to light 
                                     G 
Right before your eyes o-oh 

And He won't let go 

 
                 D 
When you just can't face tomorrow 
                     G 
When you're down deep in the sorrow 
                  Bm 
When your faith is on the edge, don't be afraid to step 
           G 
Cause even if you'll fail to fly 
                             D 
He'll catch you by surprise! 
                             G 
He'll catch you by surprise! 
                              D                    G 
He'll catch you by surprise!
