Who am [G]I? That the [D]Lord of all the [Em]earth
Would [D]care to know my [C]name, would [D]care to feel my [C]hurt
Who am [G]I? That the [D]bright and morning [Em]star
Would [D]choose to light the [C]way, for my [D]ever wandering [C]heart


Not [Em]because of who I [D]am, but [C]because of what you’ve [D]done
Not [Em]because of what I’ve [D]done, but [C]because of who you [D]are


[G]I am a [D]flower quickly [Em]fading, here [D]today and gone [C]tomorrow
A [D]wave tossed in the [C]ocean (ocean), a vapor in the [G]wind
Still You [D]hear me when I’m [Em]calling, Lord, you [D]catch me when I’m [C]falling
And you’ve [D]told me who I [C]am, I am [G]yours


Who am [G]I? That the [D]eyes that see my [Em]sin
Would [D]look on me with [C]love, and [D]watch me rise [C]again
Who am [G]I? That the [D]voice that calmed the [Em]sea
Would [D]call out through the [C]rain, and [D]calm the storm in [C]me


Not [Em]because of who I [D]am, but [C]because of what you’ve [D]done
Not [Em]because of what I’ve [D]done, but [C]because of who you [D]are


[G]I am a [D]flower quickly [Em]fading, here [D]today and gone [C]tomorrow,
A [D]wave tossed in the [C]ocean (ocean), a vapor in the [G]wind
Still You [D]hear me when I’m [Em]calling, Lord, You [D]catch me when I’m [C]falling,
And You’ve [D]told me who I [C]am, I am [G]yours
