My Keeper

A E F#m Bm F#m E D A D So many times I felt someone was watching over me A D For there was too much unexplained A D Like the day we were swimming I jumped in the swelling river Bm E The current quickly carried me away Bm E I could feel my heart racing as the grave of muddy water Bm E F#m E Would seel my doom and claim another life Bm E D E Like a hand from out of nowhere I was lifted toward the sunlight D F#m D E With just one breath I knew that I'd survive A D Now I know my keeper, I call Him by His name A He brought me through much danger E Spared me so much pain A D He knew someday I'd see Him He was never far away A E A E Now I know my keeper I talk to Him each day F#m A I faced another river this one oh so vast F#m A Millions there were helpless drowning from their past F#m A Satan vowed that he would claim my sinfull soul one day D A D E A E But all at once a nail-scarred hand reached down and I was saved A D Now I know my keeper, I call Him by His name A He brought me through much danger E A Spared me so much pain D He knew someday I'd see Him He was never far away A E A Now I know my keeper I talk to Him each day E A E F#m E D Now I know my keeper and Jesus is His name
