"Jesus Is My Help" by: Hezekiah Walker

[T-Block]

I've always wanted to learn this song, but never got the chance to do so until now. Please don't try to make the words match the chords. I tried to match them, but if that's all you focus on, then you're gonna get confused. Just learn the chords I have here and let the choir worry about singing. Enjoy!

"Jesus Is My Help" by: Hezekiah Walker
Key eb/Gb  LH/RH

Intro:

Eb, Bb, D, Eb, D, Eb, Bb, Eb /
Fb, Cb, Eb, Fb, Eb, Fb, Gb, D /
(repeat)

Now, if you don't have a bass player, I realize it's hard to keep that bass pattern going when you add in the chords. So, I suggest that you modify it to this:

Eb, Bb, Eb, Bb, Eb /
Fb, Cb, Fb, Gb, Db /
(repeat)

Eb /
/ Ab-Bb-Db-F
Bb /
/ Ab-Bb-Db-F
Eb / Ab-Bb-Db-F
/ Ab-Bb-Db-F
Bb / 
Eb / Ab-Bb-Db-F
Fb / Bb-Eb
/ Ab-Db
Cb /
 / Db-Gb
Fb / Bb-Eb
/ Ab-Db
Gb /
Db /
(repeat 2x)

Eb /
/ Ab-Bb-Db-F
Bb /
/ Ab-Bb-Db-F
Eb / Ab-Bb-Db-F
/ Ab-Bb-Db-F
Bb / 
Eb / Ab-Bb-Db-F
Fb / Bb-Eb
/ Ab-Db
Cb /
 / Db-Gb
Eb / Gb-Bb-Eb
Db / Ab-Db-F

Part 1:

C / Bb-Eb-Gb
Why should I worry?
F / A-Db-Eb-Ab  Why
should I fret?
Bb / Ab-Db-F
look at all the
Eb / Bb-Db-Gb  ways
He's made, and
Ab / Cb-Eb-Ab  every
Gb / Db-Gb-Bb  promise
F / Eb-Gb-Cb  kept,

Db / Db  I
Eb /  look
/ Ab-Bb-Db-F
Bb /  to the
/ Ab-Bb-Db-F
Eb / Ab-Bb-Db-F  hills
/ Ab-Bb-Db-F
Bb /  from
Eb / Ab-Bb-Db-F  which
Fb / Bb-Eb-Ab  com-
/ Bb-Eb-Ab  eth
Cb /
 / Bb-Eb-Ab  my
Eb / Bb-Eb-G  help,
I tell you
Eb / G-Cb-Db-Gb  where my

Ab, Eb, Gb, Ab, Ab, Eb, Gb / Cb-Eb-Gb-Bb  help cometh,
Ab, Eb, Gb, Ab, Ab, Eb, Gb / Cb-Eb-Gb-Bb  I tell you where my
A, E, G#, A, A, E, G / C#-E-A  help cometh-
A, E / C#-E-A  eth,
Eb, Bb / G-Cb-Db-Gb  I tell you where my
Ab, Bb, Cb, Cb, C / Cb-Eb-Gb-Bb  help cometh-
Db / Cb-Eb-Gb  eth, it
Bb / Eb-Gb-Cb  cometh
Db / F-Ab-Db  from the
Eb / Gb-Bb-Eb  Lord,
(back to Intro or on to Part 2)

Eb / G-Cb-Db-Gb

Part 2:

Ab / Cb-Eb-Gb  Jesus
Bb / Bb-Db-Gb  is
Cb / Cb-Eb-Gb  my
Db / Bb-Db-Gb  help,
* / Db-Ab,Bb, Ab, Gb, Db  *optional run u can add in anytime
(repeat many times)

Then, it modulates to the next key which is e/G and repeats Part 2 in that key:

E / G#-C-D-G

A / C-E-G  Jesus
B / B-D-G  is
C / C-E-G  my
D / B-D-G  help,
(repeat many times)

Then it goes to the next, and the next key and finally stops at the key of g/Bb, and repeats part of Part 1. Here are those chords:

I tell you where my
C, G, Bb, C, C, G, Bb / Eb-G-Bb-D  help cometh,
C, G, Bb, C, C, G, Bb / Eb-G-Bb-D  I tell you where my
C#, G#, B, C#, C#, G#, B / E#-G#-C#  help cometh-
C#, G# / D#-G#-C#  eth,
G / Cb-Eb-F-Bb  I tell you where my
C, D, Eb, Eb, Fb / Eb-G-Bb-D  help cometh-
F / Eb-G-Bb  eth, it
Eb / G-Bb-Eb  cometh
F / A-C-F  from the
G / Bb-D-G  Lord.


Here's a midi I made just for this chord post. There are a couple of gliches, but for the most part the midi matches this chord post.

Please don't ask if I'm gonna do any more midis. I may, but not by request.
