Chords for Sometimes It Takes a Mountain | Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir

song.
They're getting ready here, the guys that sing it with the choir.
And we want to make it a
time of prayer for some of you.
The Bible teaches us that God permits problems.
He permits trials,
tribulations, all those things to strengthen our faith, to give us endurance, [G] and to draw us many
times closer to him.
[Em] When we drift away, [Dm] we get a little casual and mechanical in our serving [Am] the
Lord, and then God permits [A] a mountain to come before us.
And [G] then we realize, this thing is way
too big for [F] me.
Oh Jesus, I need you.
I trust you.
So God permits mountains [C] to come in our way.
They've come in my way many times.
How about [F] you?
Same thing, right?
And [C] you might have a mountain
[Dm] today in front of you.
Personal mountain, [F] financial, in your family, an [G] attack, whatever it is, there's
a mountain in front of you.
God's permitted it so that you'll learn to trust him.
Don't be afraid.
[C] Trust him now.
He permitted it so that you could learn to trust him and see the glory of God.
[G] So
as they sing this song, you got a mountain facing you.
Once the song [Cm] begins, you just stand right
where you are, stand right in your seat and say, Pastor, that song's for me.
I'm agreeing with God
together now.
I'm trusting him to get me through and over [G] this mountain.
Bless you.
_ [G#] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _
[C] I've faced a mountain that I've never faced [F] before. _
[G] That's why I'm calling [C] on you, Lord.
_ [F]
[C] I know it's been a while, but Lord, please hear my prayer.
[Dm] I need you like I never [G] have before.
_ [C] _
[G] _ Sometimes it [C] takes a mountain. _ _
_ Sometimes a troubled sea.
[D] _
[F] _ Sometimes it [G] takes a desert to _ get a [C] hold of me.
[F] _
[C] _ [G] Your love is [C] so much stronger than what ever [F] _ troubles [A#] me.
[F] _ Sometimes it [G] takes a mountain to _ trust you [C] and believe.
_ [F] _
[C] _ _ _ _ Forgive me, Jesus.
I thought I could [F] control _ [G] whatever life would throw my way.
_ [C] But this, I will admit, has [F] brought me to my knees.
[Dm] I need you, Lord, and I'm [F] not ashamed [G] to say.
_ _ Oh, sometimes it [C] takes a mountain.
_ _ _ Sometimes [E]
[F] a troubled sea.
_ _ Sometimes it [G] takes a desert to _ get a hold [C] of me.
_ _ [F] But your love [C] is so much stronger
_ than what [E] ever [F] _ troubles me.
_ _ Sometimes it [G] takes a mountain _ to _ [F] trust you [C] and believe.
_ _ _ _ [A#] _ _
[G#] _ _ Sometimes it [C#] takes a mountain.
_ [F#] _
[C#] _ _ Sometimes a [F#] troubled sea. _ _
_ Sometimes it [G#] takes _ _ [C#] _
[G#] _ a desert to get a [C#] hold of me.
Your love _ _ [G#] _ [C#] is so much stronger [F#]
[C#] than [G#m] what ever _ _ [F#] _ _
_ troubles me.
Sometimes it [G#] takes a mountain to _ _ _ trust you [C#] and believe.
Sometimes it _ _ [G#] _ [C#] takes a mountain _ _ to trust [F#] you _ and believe.
