[Verse 1]
      A
It’s easy to bless you
                   E
When the valleys behind me
       A
It’s easy to trust you
                       E
When my worlds not unwinding
    C#m                    A
But this is the darkest midnight
         E             B
That my soul has ever seen
 C#m                 A
So I will stand my ground
          E               B
Lift my hands to you and sing


[Chorus]
   A                    B
Before the prayer is answered
  E        B/D#    C#m
Before the battles won
  A                 B
Before the trial is over
  G#m                 A
Before the healing comes
   A               B
I will choose to trust you
  E      B/D#      C#m
I will bless you Lord
          A                  E
I won’t wait to praise you after
               B     A E
I will praise you before


[Verse 2]
         A
In the lonely place of silence
                          E
When the waiting gets so old
    A
I found the flame of worship
                            B
Keeps my heart from growing cold
         C#m            A
You’ve always been so faithful
     E              B
When I can’t do my part
      C#m              A
Even in my worn out weakness
           E             B
Nothing changes who you are


[Chorus]
   A                    B
Before the prayer is answered
  E        B/D#    C#m
Before the battles won
  A                 B
Before the trial is over
  G#m                 A
Before the healing comes
   A               B
I will choose to trust you
  E      B/D#      C#m
I will bless you Lord
          A                  E
I won’t wait to praise you after
               B
I will praise you


[Bridge]
   A
Before you ever formed me
      B
You knew I’d be here on my knees
             D
You’re the one who’s fighting for me
          Bm                  B
And you know where this will lead


[Chorus]
   A                    B
Before the prayer is answered
  E        B/D#    C#m
Before the battles won
  A                 B
Before the trial is over
  G#m                 A
Before the healing comes
   A               B
I will choose to trust you
  E      B/D#      C#m
I will bless you Lord
          A                  E
I won’t wait to praise you after
               B     A E
I will praise you before
