[Verse 1]
[G]Big black book
[Csus2]In her small, hands[G][D][Csus2]
[G]The words she read
[Csus2]I was too young to under
[G]stand[Csus2]
[G]Between the [Csus2]these and
those and the [D]verilies
I watch my [G]grandma live the
truth in [Csus2]front of me[D]
[G]Little boy wakes fro[Csus2]m a
dream in [G]the night[Csus2]
[G]Runs down the hall
[Csus2]to where she left on the li[G]ne[Csus2]
[G]But [Csus2]I stopped when I saw her
[D]down on her knees
Where [G]she prayed every night [Csus2]for me
In a [D]whisper I heard Je[G]sus
[Asus4]Keep er o[G]f t[Csus2]his life[G]
[Csus2]You are my refug[Em]e
My savior, [Csus2]my guide
[D]Watch ove[G]r
This [Csus2]little on[Em]e tonight
And [Csus2]guard his every footste[G]p
As he [Am]travels [D]this life
[Em]In some quiet moments,[D]
[G]draw Him to your [Csus2]side[G]
That [Am]He may come to know you, Je[Em]sus,
[Csus2]as the keeper of this night[G][Csus2]
[G]20 years [Csus2]have come and
gone since [G]that time
[Csus2]I can still s[G]ee my
grandma's face
[Csus2]in my little eyes.
[G]You[Csus2] will fin[G]d me[Csus2] tonight
somewhere [D]down on my knees
as I [G]whisper a [D]prayer
that [G]was once [Csus2]prayed for me.
[D]You will hear [G]me
Jesus, keep[Csus2]er of this life[G]
[Csus2]You are my refug[Em]e,
my savior, [Csus2]my guide
[D]Watch [G]over these [Csus2]little on[C]es tonight
[Em]Guard [Csus2]their every footstep[G]
[Em]as they travel t[C]his life
[D]And [Em]in some quiet mome[D]nt,
[G]draw them to Your [Csus2]side
[G]That [Am]they may come to [Em]know You,
[Csus2]Jesus, as the Keeper
Oh, Je[G]sus,
[Asus4]Keeper of[G] thi[Csus2]s life[G]
[Csus2]You are m[Em]y refuge,
my Savior, [D]my guide
Watch [G]over the [Csus2]little ones tonight
[G]Guard [Em]thei[Csus2]r every footstep[G]
as they [Am]travel [D]this life
And [Em]in some qu[D]iet moment,
[G]draw them to your [C]side
[G]That the[Am]y may come to know you[D],
[Em]Je s[Csus2]us[G]
As [Am]I have come to know You,
Je[Csus2]sus[C][Csus2]
Let them come to [G]know You, Jesus
[Am]The Keeper of this life[G][Csus2]
[D][Csus2][C][Csus2]
You
