Verse 
Dm                                       C                 G 
Is this one for the people  is this one for the Lord 
     Dm                                  C               G 
Or do I simply serenade for things I must afford 
              Dm                                  C                G 
You can jumble them together  my conflict still remains 
Dm                                  C                     G 
Holiness is calling in the midst of courting fame 
 

  Bb                     F                C 
'Cause I see the trust in their eyes (though the sky is falling) 
Bb                   F                C 
They need your love in their lives (compromise is calling) 

C                               G/B         E7 
So What if I stumble  what if I fall 
Am  A9  Am A4  Am  A9  Am           F 
What if I lose my step and I make fools of us all 
C                                              G                    E7 
Will the love continue when my walk becomes a crawl 
Am  A9  Am A4  Am  A9  Am           F 
What if I stumble  and what if I fall

 
(intro chords) 
What if I stumble  what if I fall...you never turn in the heat of it all.. 
 
(second verse played as first  as is 2nd verse-Chorus bridge) 
Father  please forgive me  for I cannot compose 
The fear that lives within me or the rate at which it grows 
I've struggled as a purpose on the narrow road you've carved  
Why do I dread my trespasses will leave a ly scar 
 
 
Do they see the fear in my eyes (are they so revealing?) 
This time I cannot disguise (all the doubt I'm feeling)
