BOOK OF LIFE
(Tom Coomes-Chuck Girard)
Chorus
G
I keep my thumb between the pages
C G
And my heart in the book
D7 G
Talkin' 'bout the Book of Life
G
When my life gets too confusin'
C
Well, I stop and take a second look
D7 G
Take another look in the Book of Life
E A
At times my heart gets down right faithless
E A
And I sink into the quicksand of my sin
D G
That's when the Word of God can purge my sinner's heart
C F D D7
And free me from those old desires that pop up now and then
Chorus
E A
The first time that I read it I was floatin'
E A
The second time I felt the change begin
D G
The third time thru the truth began to hit me
C F D D7
The Word of God is washin' out my brain, amen
Chorus
E A
I used to worry 'bout my waistline
E A
I found it awful hard to grin
D G
But now my soul delights in feedin' on the Word
C F D D7
Can't stuff enought of them spiritual calories in (Amen)
G
I keep my thumb between the pages
C G
And my heart in the book
D7 G
Talkin' 'bout the Book of Life
G
When my life gets too confusin'
C
Well, I stop and take a second look
D7 G
Take another look in the Book of Life
D7 G
Why don't we take another look in the Book of Life
D7
Come on let's take another look in the book
(In the book)
In the book
(In the book)
G
In the Book of Life
