You may ask me why I serve the Lord,
Fm Eb Eb/F Eb/G
Is it just for Heaven's gain,
Cm Eb Eb/D Cm Cm/Bb
Or to walk those mighty streets of gold,
Ab Bb Bb/F Bb/G
And to hear the angels sing.
Fm/Ab Bb Eb
Is it just to drink from the fountain,
Ab Eb Eb/D
That never shall run dry.
Ab/C Ab Eb Bb/D Cm
Or just to live forever, ever, and ever,
Ab Ab/Bb Eb Eb/D
In that sweet old bye and bye.
[Chorus]
Ab Ab/Bb Eb Eb/F Eb/G
But if heaven never was promised to me,
Ab Bb Eb
Neither God's promise to live eternally.
Eb/D Cm Cm/Bb Fm/Ab Fm
It's been worth just having the Lord in my life.
Bb Gm/Bb Bb
Living in a world of dark-ness,
Ab/C Ab/Bb Ab Eb/G
He came along and brought me the light
Ab Ab/Bb Eb Eb/F Eb/G
If there were never any streets of gold,
Eb Bb Eb
Neither a land where we'll never grow old,
Eb/D Cm Cm/Bb Fm/Ab Fm
It's been worth just having the Lord in my life.
Bb Gm/Bb Bb
Living in a world of dark-ness,
Ab/C Ab/Bb Ab Eb/G
He came along and brought me the light
[Bridge]
Ab Eb Eb/F Eb/G
O He has been my closest friend down through-out the years
Ab Eb
And every time I cry you know He dries all my tears
Eb/D Cm Cm/Bb Fm/Ab Fm
It's been worth just having the Lord in my life
Bb Gm/Bb Bb
living in a world of dark - ness,
Ab/C Ab/Bb Ab Eb/G
But He brought me the light.
Bb Gm/Bb Bb
You know I was living in a world of dark - ness,
Ab/C Ab/Bb Ab Eb/G
But He brought me the light.

I was living in a world of dark - ness,
