White Oak On The Hill

            A                      
There's a white oak on the hill at 
    D                   A
my old clinch mountain home.
That stands straight and true on 
      B7         E
that windy spur alone
      A                          
And when the cold wind blows it's 
   D                  A
roots they bend and moan
But when the storm have passed it 
            E           A
straightens up and goes on

[Chorus]
A                          D     
Lord let me be like that white 
          A
oak on the hill
                              B7   
And help me to live in Your 
   E
almighty will

  A                          D    
Help me on my journey, Lord, as I 
              A
travel on my own
And give me the strength to 
            E         A
straighten up and go on.

[Verse]
      A                            
You know the troubles of this life,
         D              A
 They sometimes get me down
And when I look for my friends, 
        B7            E
they're not always a'round
           A                    
Then the good Lord seems to say, 
           D            A
"son, get up and do my will
                              E    
And always remember that ol' white 
            A
oak on the hill."

[Chorus]
 A                        D       
Lord let me be like that white oak
        A
 on the hill
                              B7   
and Help me to live in Your 
   E
almighty will
  A                          D    
Help me on my journey, Lord, as I 
              A
travel on my own
And give me the strength to 
           E         A
straighten up and go on.
And give me the strength to 
           E         A
straighten up and go on.
