C
When the road is long
Am
And your strength is gone
G                      F
Remember I am just a prayer away
C
When the way is hard
Am
And you are faint of heart
G                      F
Remember I am just a prayer away

Dm               F                     G
Hold fast, I'll guide you through the night
Dm                 F           G
And fear not for I am by your side

Chorus:
 C                  G
Listen through the rain
     Dm               F
And you can hear the angels say
 C              G
Help is on the way
     Dm         F
The moment you begin to pray
  C                G
When the thunders roar
 Dm               F
You don't need to be afraid
      C                     G
I'll lead you through the storm
     Dm              F
So please remember when I say
F            G   C
I'm with you always

When you are worn out
And you are let down
Remember I am just a prayer away
When every door is locked
And you feel so lost
Remember I am just a prayer away

Hold fast, I'll guide you through the night
And fear not for I am by your side

Chorus

F         C          G      Am
Come and walk with me, yeah
F         C          G      Am
Come and talk with me, yeah
F        C          G
Soar on eagles' wings
F   G/F F/G  G  C
Run and not be faint.

Chorus

             G   C
I'm with you always
