Lyrics

Verse:
Oh how wonderful it is
Jesus promised he'll take care of me
Oh how marvelous it is
Jesused promised he'll take care of me

Tenors: I don't have to worry about the things ahead
Altos: All I have to do is live right
Sopranos: And believe in what he said

I can call him in the morning; I can call him in the middle of the night
And when I call him he'll make everything alright
It does not matter how big the problem may be
Jesus promised he'll take care of me

Kendall 1 I have a question about the vamp/run part.
Do you continue to play those runs for all three sections as they sing their parts in the left hand and hold the same chord for the right? Or do you add fill ins there also?

Thanks for posting the chords!!!!

Be blessed

Since you recommended it so highly I went on Limewire and downloaded the song yesterday, printed the chords and went to rehearsal, I heard the song on the train to the church (I live in NYC), walked in went to the piano and voila...   The choir loved it!   This site makes me look like I can really play - thanks everybody!
