Rescue
               Em
Lord, I need a rescue
                A7
A stone to hold on to
               D D7
A rock to take root

               G
Send down your hand, Lord
            Em
Call up the land
               A7
Come still the waters
               D     D7
of trouble and trial

C                            G
Preserve me, protect, and prevent me
   D          D7                       G  G7
to suffer the swell of the sea and the storm
  C          B7          Em   Cm
Defend me, deliver and direct me
     G                            D
from falling in the depths of the flood
                  G     C G
to your welcoming shore

G
Rescue, my Lord
                   Em
Would you grant me rescue?
                A7
I don't mean to test you
            D D7
beguile or abuse

             G
Wayward I've wandered
                 Em
My fortunes I've squandered
                   A7
In sin I have have tarried
             D  D7
I will not deny

           G
O Maker, o mercy
            Em
O bastion, eternal keep
               A7
Permit me come unto thee
               D D7
Throw open the doors

              G
This prodigal foundling
                Em
no more will be flound'ring
            A7       D
Lifted from drowning
D7           G      Cm G
Washed and redeemed
