G C G
I don't talk to Him that much
G C G
I know I never pray enough
G D Em
Oh but I don't know where I would be
C D G
Without Jesus here with me
G C G
I don't know why I'm still here
G C G
Or why I lived that Wednesday morn
G D Em
They were raising hands and screaming hold me
C D G
Jesus was right there with me
G
I gladly would have died that day
D
To save the child who went away
Em
But you can't trade a life like that
C
I guess it's part of the master plan
G
My sister fought, my daddy cried,
D
My mama begged him for our lives
Em C
And I don't know how I would breathe
D G
Without Jesus here with me
G C G
The preacher tried to make me learn
G C G
I memorized his favorite verse
G D Em
But Hank's words they taught me everything
C D G
Thank God I saw the light for me
G
I gladly would have died that day
D
To save the child who went away
Em
But you can't trade a life like that

I guess it's part of the master plan

My sister fought, my daddy cried,
D
My mama begged him for our lives
Em C
And I don't know how I would breathe
D G
Without Jesus here with me
Am C
Before I knew his mercy, before I know his grace
G D
I was searching for the answers in a dark and hollow place
Am C
Before I felt his presence, before I knew his face
G D
I was lost, Oh I was lost
G C G
I still don't talk to Him that much
G C G
I know I never pray enough
G D Em
Oh but I don't know where I would be
C D G
Without Jesus here with me
G D Em
No there ain't no telling where I'd be
C D G
Without Jesus here with me
