[INTRO]
F  Gm  Dm  Bb 

[VERSE 1]
        F                             Gm             Dm
Another sleepless night, praying hope comes with the morning light 
                 Bb                  F
Right now you’re feeling like you’ve lost this fight 
            Gm                 Dm       Bb
And fear is screaming out your name 
             F                             Gm           Dm
When you say God help me, You’re wondering if He’s even listening 
               Bb           F
Truth is, I’ve wondered the very same thing 
              Gm             Dm       Bb
So, you don’t have to feel ashamed 

[PRE-CHORUS 1]
       C             Dm           Bb
Let me walk with you through this valley 
             C             Dm            Bb
And tell you all that I’ve learned to be true 

[CHORUS]
           F      
Don’t lose heart, don’t you dare let go 
     Gm             Dm                     
I’ve been where you are, you are not alone 
  Bb           F
I know it gets dark, I know it gets hard 
    Gm          Dm      Bb  
But we’re gonna make it home, so don’t lose heart

[TAG]
F                   Gm    Dm                  Bb
  Don’t lose heart,          don’t lose heart 

[VERSE 2]
F                           Gm                 Dm
Take my hand, and I’ll show all the scars from where I’ve been 
           Bb               F
Remind you how we both know this story ends 
              Gm              Dm     Bb
I know you’ll do the same for me 

[PRE-CHORUS 2]
        C                  Dm        Bb
These afflictions that are only temporary 
                  C       Dm      Bb
Are gonna turn to glory beyond compare 
[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]
           Gm               F/A
Don’t lose hope, don’t lose faith 
             Bb                             C
Just hold on tight to every promise God has made 
             Gm                   F/A
You lose the fear in the light of grace 
               Bb                    C
Just lift your eyes to your Father’s face

[PRE-CHORUS 3]
         C                 Dm   Bb
Hear the song he’s singing over you 
           F                    Dm
Don’t lose heart, I won’t ever let you go 
    Bb              Gm          F/A        Bb
I’m right where you are, You’re safe in my arms 

[CHORUS]

[OUTRO]   
F                   Gm    Dm                  Bb
  Don’t lose heart,          don’t lose heart 
F                   Gm              Dm      Bb
  Don’t lose heart,     we’re gonna make it home
           F
Don’t lose heart
