Album: WARRIOR'S CRY | Song lyrics to:
DON'T RESCUE ME
Em-C-Em-C-Em-C-Em-C
Verse 1:
(Em) I know what it’s (G) like to be (D) tossed and turned a (C) round
I’ve been (Em) tempted by the (C) world but I’ve re(D)jected what I’ve (Dsus4)found
(C) Stand be(G)side me and I’ll find (D) strength to carry (Em) on
These (Am) battles are too (G) hard to fight (D) alone.
Chorus:
(Bm) When my life is done may it not be said of me
That I was one who surrendered easily
(Gmaj7) I will lift my voice and cry with (F#m) all that’s in me
“Please (Em7) don’t, please (F#m) don’t rescue me yet, please (Gmaj7) don’t
Please”
(Em-C-Em-C-Em-C-Em-C)
Verse 2:
(Em) I’ve tasted (G) tears (D) flowing down my (C) cheeks
I have (Em) felt Your arms a(C)round me, giving (D)strength when I was (Dsus4)weak
And I’ve (C)felt the (G)pain of letting (D) go of those I (Em)love
I (Am) know You (G) are e(D)nough.
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse 3:
(Em)You know what it’s (G) like to be (D) mocked at by the (C)rest.
To (Em) live a lonely (C)life and then to (D)die a painful (Dsus4)death,
But Your (C) love for (G) me is what (D) helped you make it (Em)through
How can (Am) I do (G) less for (D)You?
Last Chorus:
(Bm) When my life is done may it not be said of me
That I was one who surrendered easily
(Gmaj7) I will lift my voice and cry, will (F#m) you cry with me?
“Please (Em7) don’t, please (F#m) don’t rescue me yet
please (Gmaj7) don’t, please (F#m) don’t rescue me, yet please (Gmaj7) don’t!”
