Verse 1
                    F         
I hold the pen that writes the 
               G                 C
words, but He tells me what to say
                         F       
I touch the strings that make the 
                G                C
chords, but he shows me what to play
                     F             
I pour my heart in - to my art and 
G                   C
pray that it shines through
                     F             
And if it does, it’s just be - 
      G               C
cause His hand is on it, too

Verse 2
                            F      
All those roads I took that lead to
          G                  C
 love, or broke my heart in two

All those times I’ve known, when I
