D G D I used to carry this big old world G D G D On my shoulders and back D G D I used to lie inside my room G A D Wondering where I'm at D G D I felt a chill running through my veins G D G D And wondered, would I be saved? D G D I felt the ice building in my soul G A D Would it melt away? Chorus G D He's a warm breeze G A D Breathing life into me G D He's the sunlight G A D Shining down on me I used to worry my life away Counting every dime Shutting out the ones I loved Never finding the time And then one day I was overcome By loneliness and dispair And deep inside I thought I heard "Lean on me, I'm here" Chorus I pulled the burden from off my back And tossed it into the wind And stretched my arms toward the sky And let my life begin And like a tree, I have measured up Best when I've been cut down And like a tree, I can touch the sky With my feet on the ground Chours He's a warm breeze Breathing life into me He's the sunlight Shining down on me, yeah Shining down on me Shining down, shining down Shining down on me
