[Verse 1]

C#m                                        A
I once was a child with innocent eyes
E                                                 G#
And my family swore the new best for my life
C#m                                                 A
I followed their rules as I played with my friends
E                                                                 G#
When it came to the world I never thought it would end

[Chorus]
C#m G# C#m C#m B E
Help me faith, help me faith
A                                  E                                 F#m
Shield me from sorrow, from fear of tomorrow
C#m G# C#m C#m B E
Help me faith, help me faith
A                                 E                                 F#m
Shield me from sadness, from worry and madness
B                 C#m
Lead me to the bless

[Verse 2]

C#m                                                 A
And as I grew up I could never be free
E                                                 G#
Cause the shackles I wore can’t be touched or be seen
C#m                                                                 A
My heart never loved and my soul couldn’t laugh
E                                                                                   G#
So much hate in my life, couldn’t make out the path

[Chorus]
C#m G# C#m C#m B E
Help me faith, help me faith
A                                 E                                 F#m
Shield me from sorrow, from fear of tomorrow
C#m G# C#m C#m B E
Help me faith, help me faith
A                                 E                                 F#m
Shield me from sadness, from worry and madness
B                                 C#m
Lead me to the bless

[Verse 3]
C#m                                                                 A
And when I grew old I was riddled with sin
E                                                                                 G#
Locked my soul in the dark, never let the light in
C#m                                                                 A
I crawled towards the gate with little time left
E                                                                                 G#
I cried “What have I done?” as I took my last breath

[Chorus]
C#m G# C#m C#m B E
Help me faith, help me faith
A                                 E                                 F#m
Shield me from sorrow, from fear of tomorrow
C#m G# C#m C#m B E
Help me faith, help me faith
A                                 E                                                 F#m
Shield me from sadness, from worry and madness
B                 C#m
Lead me to the bless
C#m
Lead me to the bless.
