Desert Song - Brooke Fraser - chords and lyrics



There have been a few searches on my songbook blog lately for "Christian" and "Gospel".
"Desert Song" has been searched out on the blog more than a few times, so I decided to find out what it is all about. Since I liked the song - here it is...

Desert Song

Written by Brooke Fraser
Performed by Brooke Fraser & Jill McCloghry
CAPO on the 2nd

Am  G  F  C  Am  G  F  F

Am           G                 F       C
This is my prayer in the desert
         Am             G                F   C
When all that’s within me feels dry
Am          G                  F                C
This is my prayer in my hunger and need
      Am           G            F
My God is the God who provides

Am          G                 F    C
This is my prayer in the fire
    Am              G        F    C
In weakness or trial or pain
Am          G                         F                   C
There is a faith proved of more worth than gold
     Am          C                        F
So refine me Lord through the flame

                       C                         G
And I will bring praise, I will bring praise
                  F                                   C
No weapon formed against me shall remain
G      G                 Am
I will rejoice, I will declare
                 F               G      Am
God is my victory and He is here 

Am  G  F  C  Am  G  F  F

Am           G                 F      C
This is my prayer in the battle
         Am           G            F    C
When triumph is still on its way
Am     G                     F                C
I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ
     Am           G               F
So firm on His promise I'll stand

                       C                        G
And I will bring praise, I will bring praise
                 F                                  C
No weapon formed against me shall remain
G/B      G               Am
I will rejoice, I will declare
               F               G      Am
God is my victory and He is here

Csus4     C     Csus4    C
All of my life    in every season
Am
You are still God
                            G
I have a reason to sing
F                          C
I have a reason to worship
(repeats a few times)

                        C                         G
And I will bring praise, I will bring praise
                 F                                  C
No weapon formed against me shall remain
G/B      G               Am
I will rejoice, I will declare
               F                G      Am
God is my victory and He is here 

Am  G  F  C  Am  G  F  F

(slowly) 
Am          G                  F      C
This is my prayer in the harvest
         Am            G              F   C
When favour and providence flow
Am            G              F           C
I know I'm filled to be emptied again
      Am           G                 F
The seed I've received I will sow
