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
