Verse 1: 
C                             D                             Em 
I’ve been running trying to be one who sees  
						               C 
I’ve been working Salvation out on my knees 
			 D			  Em 
There is nothing better than knowing we are redeemed 
C		         D			 Em 
I’m believing  trusting in creative hands 
						            C 
I am praying for our world to bow to your plan 
			          D 
And this one thought is unmistakable 
   Em							C  D 
I take up my cross and follow You Lord 


G 
When you stand the tall trees and mountains bow 
Em 
When you speak the fiercest of oceans is still 
C	                   D 
And I see the sinners seek devotion 
        Em 
The lost become chosen 
 			C    D  Em 
And I fall to my knees 

Verse 2: 
C                             D	    		                  Em 
I’m forgiven by a Savior who did not deserve death 
						                   C 
He was blameless and I was lost in shamefulness 
			        D      
I’m delivered but it doesn’t seem right 
	       Em								     C 
Unless I keep my eyes focused on the Savior who gave His life 
            		    D				  Em 
In the middle of a world that denies it believes 
					       C 
It is breaking apart at the very seams  
			        D 
There is one thing to be alive for 
                  Em			         C 
And it’s to take up this cross and follow you Lord 

Bridge: 
G	             	        C 
I will take up my cross and follow Lord where You lead me 
Em		         D	       C 
I will take up my cross and follow wherever You go   (2x)
