Verse 1
                 Eb/G   Fm         Db             Ab
All who sail the sea of faith find out before too long

How quickly blue skies         can grow dark

Suddenly fear is like white water pounding on the soul

Still we sail on knowing that our Lord is in con - trol

He has a reason for each trial

That we pass through in life

And though we're shaken        we cannot 
   Fm     Db         Ebsus   Eb
Be pulled apart from Christ
Db                        Ab         Ab/C
No matter how the driving rain beats down

This is my interpretation of the song and is what I hear. I am not providing the
chord voicings as I usually do. Due to all the barre and slash chords, this song
is rated as intermediate. For what it's worth, the Fsus is the same as a
Bbsus2. Play either one and they sound identical.
