    Revival - song 1

    Key Ab

    Capo IIntro: (G)

     

    I am an (G) orphan, on God's (D) highway

    But I'll share my (G) troubles,

    If you'll go (C) my way

    I have no (G) mother, no (D) father,

    No (G) sister, no (C) brother

    (G) I am an (D) orphan (G) girl

     

    I have had (G) friendships, pure and (D) golden

    But the ties of (G) kinship,

    I have not (C) known them

    I know no (G) mother, no (D) father,

    No (G) sister, no (C) brother

    (G) I am an (D) orphan (G) girl

    But when he (G) calls me, I will be (D) able

    To meet my (G) family at God's (C) table

    I'll meet my (G) mother, my (D) father,

    My (G) sister, my (C) brother

    (G) No more an (D) orphan (G) girl

    Instrumental

     

    Blessed (G) saviour, make me (D) willing

    And walk be(G)side me, until I'm (C) with them

    Be my (G) mother, my (D) father,

    My (G) sister, my (C) brother

    (G) I am an (D) orphan (G) girl

    (G) I am an (D) orphan (C) girl (G) (D)  (G)
