Capo 4 [Chorus] G C G Was there nothing but the hush of night? C G Em G Had a boat; don't remember where. G C G Did you flee from what was said and seen? Em C G Truth's not true under the light of lies. Em C G Raise your sword and shield [Verse] G C G Was there more than just the prose of night? C G Em G Had a grave; don't remember where. G C G Beaten down awhile I lift up my prayer. Em C G Em C G Broken promises have set the snare; both sincere and not. G C G Was there nothing but the blessed night? C G Em G Had some gold but don't remember where. G C G When does faith lift up its head so high? Em C G Em C G Oh, my Lord, won't you please tell me why faith bestows power? [Chorus] (x2) G C G Was there nothing but the hush of night? C G Em G Had a treasure but I don't know where. G C G Did you flee from what was said and seen? Em C G Yes, the good was not without the bad. Em C G Raise your sword and shield.
