Verse 1:

            G            C           G
There are things as we travel this earth’s shifting sands
         D               D7       G   G7
That transcend all the reason of man
          C          Cm         G
But the things that matter the most in this world
           D       D7          G   G7
They can never be held in our hand


Chorus:

     C               G/B    Am     G
I believe in a hill called Mount Calvary
G    D/F#   Em      A7        Am7   D7
I'll  be - lieve whatever the cost
          G           B7            C          A7
And when time has surrendered and earth is no more
             D            D7          G
I'll still cling to that old rugged cross


Verse 2:

     G               C              G
I believe that the Christ who was slain on the cross
          D        D7           G   G7
Has the power to change lives today
          C           Cm         G
For He changed me completely, a new life is mine
         D          D7           G   G7
That is why by the cross I will stay


Repeat Chorus


Verse 3:

     G               C              G
I believe that this life with its great mysteries
          D          D7         G   G7
Surely someday will come to an end
      C          Cm           G
But faith will conquer the darkness and death
          D          D7          G    G7
And will lead me at last to my Friend


Repeat Chorus
