G                                       C
Dear Lord please make me happy and contented with my life.
                                             D
For I know there’s others far worse off than me.
            G                              C                  G
There are some who lie in anguish their bodies wracked with pain
               C     A         D     G
As for me I’m only blind and cannot see.
     D                                  G
My little world is darkness, there’s sunshine in my heart.
   D        A                             D
There’s sunshine I must spread while I remain.
       G                          C              G
And I know that up in heaven my sight will be restored
                           C       A       D       G
Where there will be no darkness, sorrow, tears or pain.
    G     A        D                      G
I thank thee for these hands of mine, I thank thee for my voice
    A                                  D
I thank thee for each blessing that I own
         G                                 C                  G
Then I thank thee for the promise when my life on earth is over
                C         A       D          G
I shall gladly sing and play around your throne.
    D                            G
I know the bible tells me that you while here on earth
       A                                  D
That heal the sick and make the blind to see.
        G                             C                  G
And I know that if I’m faithfull and your commandments keep.
              C        A       D       G
Up in heaven you will do the same for me
