Intro: Eb Bb Db Cm Cm/Eb 

         F 
A single voice, 
             Eb             Bb 
Is joined by multitudes in song, 
           F 
With every verse, 
                Eb             Bb              F 
They're finding harmonies that rise to Heaven sure and strong. 
Fm                    Eb                 Bb 
Richer and richer the soil on which they thrive, 
Fm                  Eb              Eb       F 
Higher and higher a hymn of what it means to be alive 

                            Bb 
You've got to give a little more than you take, 
                             Dm            Eb 
You've got to leave a little more than was here, 
                           Bb              F 
You maybe prideful of the strides you will make, 
         F7        Bb    F 
But keep one thing clear, 
                          Bb 
You're just a player in a much bigger plan, 
                              Dm           Eb 
And still you have to give it all that you can, 
                         Bb          F 
The very measure of your soul is at stake, 
                            Eb            Bb 
You've got to give a little more than you take, 

(Db  Cm) 

            F 
The seasons fly, 
        Eb                     Bb 
A man stands where a boy once stood, 
           F 
His path unfolds, 
        Eb               Bb           F 
And unafraid he walks in service of a greater good, 
Fm                    Eb             Bb 
Deeper and deeper the lessons he has known, 
Fm                Eb            Eb/Eb        F 
Over and over the message he is surely being shown 

                            Bb 
You've got to give a little more than you take, 
                             Dm            Eb 
You've got to leave a little more than was here, 
                           Bb              F 
You maybe prideful of the strides you will make, 
         F7        Bb    F 
But keep one thing clear, 
                          Bb 
You're just a player in a much bigger plan, 
                              Dm           Eb 
And still you have to give it all that you can, 
                         Bb          F 
The very measure of your soul is at stake, 
                            Eb 
You've got to give a little more than you take. 

                         Bb          F 
The very measure of your soul is at stake, 
                            Eb            Bb 
You've got to give a little more than you take.
