[Verse 1]

Bb Eb Bb F Gm7
If it had not been for the Lord, on our side

When strong raging floods surraounded us

The waves of sin
Eb Bb/D
If it had not been for,
Eb Fsus Bb
If it had not been for the Lord

[Verse 2]

Bb Eb Bb F Gm7
If it had not been for the Lord on our side
Eb Bb/D Fsus F
When dry desert plains had wearied us

Eb Bb/D
If it had not been for
Eb Fsus Bb
If it had not been for the Lord

Our hope, our help, from age to age the same

Our God, our rock, most worthy to be praised

Our grateful hearts will say evermore

If it had not been for the Lord

Bb Eb Bb F Gm7
If it had not been for the Lamb on that cross
Eb Bb/D Fsus F
Where love full and free reached down to us (reached to us)

There would be no peace with God, no peace with man

If it had not been for the Lord on that day

If it had not been for (if it had not been for)
Eb Fsus Bb
If it had not been for the Lord (oh-oh)
