[Intro]
C F

[Verse 1]
C
Does it make You smile when I make plans
F
And think they’ll Go exactly like I made ‘em?
C
Does it make You proud when my fears gets loud
F
But I stand my ground and try my best to face ‘em?
G
Does it break Your heart when my heart’s broken
Am F
Forgetting what it’s worth?
G
Do You know how much I need You
Am G
Before I even say a word?

[Chorus]
F
Dear God
C
Lately I’ve been thinking about You a lot

Words fall short
Am
But I’ll give it my best shot
G
Thank You for loving me
Em
For giving all I’ll ever need
F G
Being perfect when I’m not….
C F
Dear God, ooh

[Verse 2]
C
Tell me, what did it feel like to send Your Son to earth
F
Knowing what He’d Go through?
C
And what did it feel like to watch His best friends
F
All betray Him, like He said they’d do?
G
Were You crying like a father
Am F
When He gave His life away?
G
Were You singing hallelujah
Am G
When He rose out of the grave?

[Chorus]
F
Dear God
C
Lately I’ve been thinking about You a lot

Words fall short
Am
But I’ll give it my best shot
G
Thank You for loving me
Em
For giving all I’ll ever need
F G
Being perfect when I’m not…
C F
Dear God…
C F
Dear God…

[Bridge]
G Am F
We’ll talk face-to-face one day…
G Am G
For now, here’s the prayer I’ll pray…

[Chorus]
F
Dear God
C
Lately I’ve been thinking about You a lot

Words fall short
Am
But I’ll give it my best shot
G
Thank You for loving me
Em
For giving all I’ll ever need
F G
Being perfect when I’m not….
C F
Dear God ohh
C
Dear God
