  			D			       G		       D 
On the road to Damascus I was hung on the ropes of success 
      A			    Bm 
When You stripped away the mask of life 
	   G			  Asus A 
They had placed upon the face of death 
 
       Bm 
And I wanna thank You Lord 
	  F#m		       G              Bb 
More than all of my words can say (I give my life) 
	   D   C#  B    A         G     Asus A 
I give my life      to sing Your praise 
 
And all those fortunes I hoarded 
They were the well from which my poverty sprang 
Oh they led me to no greater glory and they left me with no less shame 
 
Chorus 
 
Bb2			          D 
I say I wanna give You glory Lord and I do 
Bb2				         Bm7/E		   A 
But everything that I could ever find to offer comes from You 
Bm	   G			    Bm		      Gmaj7 
But if my darkness can praise Your light, You give me breath 
		  D  /C#  B    A         G      Asus A 
And I'll give my life      to sing Your praise
