Description
This is a song I wrote in 1991 as a love song for my wife.
Recently, as I was listening to the song, I thought about how it could also be a song about my relationship with God and Jesus Christ, if I made some changes in the lyrics.
So I decided to do a completely new version of the song dedicated to my Lord Jesus. I hope this song brings a blessing to all who listen to it. May it bring you closer to Christ and the holy spirit, as it has me.
God Bless you all

VERSE 1
A E
When troubled times come on me - when I feel like giving in.
D A E
To the hell and fire around me - to the world and all its sin
A E
To the liars and the cheaters - to the temptations within
D A E A
I Pray to my Lord Jesus - and I am whole again
CHORUS
A C#-m
He's my first breath in the morning - my last prayer late at night.
F#-m D E
He's my strength and my power - through the struggles and the fight
A C#-m
He's the reason I keep living - He's the one who makes it right
F#-m D E A
He's my Lord and my Savior - God's Son Jesus Christ.
BRIDGE
F#-m E
I don't need to worry - I don't need to fret
F#-m E E / D#
About what's happened in the past or - hasn't happened yet
D A
There's never gonna be a day - through all eternity
B E E7
That He won't be there loving me - and setting my soul free.
Final CHORUS
A C#-m
He's my first breath in the morning - my last prayer late at night.
F#-m D E
He's my strength and my power - through the struggles and the fight
A C#-m
He's the reason I keep living - He's the one who makes it right
F#-m D E A
He's my Lord and my Savior - God's Son Jesus Christ.
