Intro: C Am  

Verse 1:  

C                                  Am  
I look around and see my wonderful life  
                                       G 
Almost perfect from the outside  
C  
In picture frames I see my beautiful wife  
Am  
Always smiling  
               G       F 
But on the inside, I can hear her saying...  

  
C  
Lead me with strong hands  
G  
Stand up when I can't  
      F  
Don't leave me hungry for love  
        Am      G  
Chasing dreams, what about us?  
C  
Show me you're willing to fight  
     G  
That I'm still the love of your life  
  F  
I know we call this our home  
    Am      G         C  
But I still feel alone  

Verse 2:  
C                                             Am  
I see their faces, look in their innocent eyes  
                                                  G 
They're just children from the outside  
C  
I'm working hard, I tell myself they'll be fine  
Am  
They're independent  
                 G     F 
But on the inside, I can hear them saying...  

Chorus   

Bridge:  

   Am                  F  
So Father, give me the strength  
      C              G  
To be everything I'm called to be  
    Am                  F  
Oh, Father, show me the way  
   C  
To lead them  
          G  
Won't You lead me?  

C  
To lead them with strong hands  
G  
To stand up when they can't  
              F  
Don't want to leave them hungry for love,  
        Am          G  
Chasing things that I could give up  
     C  
I'll show them I'm willing to fight  
G  
And give them the best of my life  
   F  
So we can call this our home  
Am              G                    C  
Lead me, 'cause I can't do this alone  
        Am              G                    C  
Father, lead me, 'cause I can't do this alone
