Intro: Am F C G E

Am 
I got a feeling as a matter of fact
          F
It's like my whole world just came under attack
      G
And I hear a voice tellin' me to turn back
          E
‘Cause I must be onto somethin'
Am
It happens every single time I get close to
F   
Everything I know is good and right and so true
G 
It's like somebody doesn't want me to love You
       E
And I must be onto somethin'

F                   C
   So help me hold on
              G
Help me be strong
                               E                       
‘Cause I don't wanna move unless You move me

Chorus:

Am                    F
I wanna know how it feels to be
C                               G            (E)
Standing in the center of Your will for me
Am                   F
I wanna know what surrender means
C                              G            (E)
Keep me in the center of Your will for me
Am  C               G  E
    Keep me in the center

Am
God forbid I start to think I'm on a roll now
F
‘Cause I do believe there is a battle for my soul now
G
And I can feel the world fighting for control now
E
I must be onto somethin'
            Am
So help me hold on just a little bit longer
F
‘Cause all this struggle's gonna do is make me stronger
G
This is the everyday prayer of my heart
E
I just wanna stay where You are
