Awesome.
Can we play you a new song?
Is that okay?
[C#] [G#]
Hi, high five.
You got it.
Just because you asked so nicely.
Come on.
[G]
[G#] [F] [F#] Can I tell you about the song first, [G#m] is that okay?
I know I've already talked a lot but I
[F#] love to share what was on our heart when we wrote it.
[N] It doesn't take a genius
to figure out that I was inspired by the story of Noah when I wrote this next [C] song called Build a Boat, right?
[C#] [G#] [G#m]
[A] Just in [A#] case you didn't know the story, I think Hollywood portrays it a certain way
but I'll give you the [G#] meat of the story.
You ready?
[G] God asked Noah to build an [N] ark.
Noah was obedient.
I'll [B] give it one more time.
God asked Noah to build an ark and Noah [F] was obedient.
[C#] [G] That's it.
[F#] Obviously stuff happened [D#] after Noah was obedient
[D#] but that's the meat of it.
Was Noah's obedience.
Hollywood portrays this big internal struggle or the struggle [C#] between Noah and God and
it just didn't happen.
And I read that story and I was like, wow,
[G#m] I [F#] want to be known as someone like Noah
who when God asks me to do something
[G#] seemingly crazy.
[A#]
My response [E] is yes.
[D#] Is there anybody else out there tonight?
[F#] I think now more than ever you're gonna be presented with that opportunity.
[B]
It looks scary sometimes.
[D#] Makes no sense in the [A#] natural.
I think that's why God calls [D#] it super natural.
[N] But I don't think he's just gonna ask you to do something crazy [A#m] just because he feels like [N] it.
I think God's trying to get something to you.
He's got this amazing
reward that's waiting on the other side of crazy faith.
[C#] The Bible says [F#] that faith is the only [D#] thing that pleases God and I [C#] believe that faith is what precedes [Bm] a miracle.
So if anyone is in a [C] dry season right now, now's the [G#] time.
Now's the time to step out of the boat.
Now's the time to whatever [B] God's asked me to do, do it.
Take him at his word and do it because his word [G] never returns void.
[F#] So in Noah's instance, [C] God asked Noah to build an ark [A#] and Noah says, you know what?
I'm gonna build [B] a boat even in a place where they say it will never rain.
I'm here.
So God let it rain.
Thank you Jesus for [N] not letting it rain literally tonight.
[B] But we're gonna do this song for you tonight, I hope you love it.
It's called Build a Boat.
[C#]
[A#m] [C#]
I've been wandering through the desert
I've seen a cloud and forever over me, but I believe the rain is coming
Yeah, I've been hanging on the high horse
Cuz the other ones make it dry bones come to life you're all the light I put my trust
Every word you say is gonna come true.
You will lead me to the promised land
Everything you [F#] said is gonna happen [C#] even though I haven't [G#] seen it
[C#] [F#]
[A#m] [F#]
[C#] [F#]
[A#m] [F#]

[C#] You will lead me to the promised land
[A#m]
Everything you [F#] said is gonna happen [C#] even though I haven't seen it
[F#] [A#m]
[G#] [F#] I'm gonna [C#] build a boat in a desert place and when the flood and the water starts to [F#] rise
Yeah, I'm riding strong cuz I got you

[G#] [F#] I'm gonna build a boat
[C#] I'm [G#] [F#] [C#]
[G#] [F#] gonna build a [C#] boat in the sand where they say it never rains
I'll stand up and face do anything it takes for your win
I'll say who's your love never fails to [F#] face
