Pillar of Fire Std. Tuning no capo
G C G
There in the distance, it's a Pillar of Fire
D C
Rumbling like thunder in a dream
D C
It roars among the pines along the line
G C D
Of the great Mississippi
G C G
It scatters all the cattle, and it rattles the leaves
D C
It skids across the prairie by the moon
D C
It sings like a choir, this Pillar of Fire
G C D C
And the name of God is the burning tune
G
I can see it swirling and whirling
C D
And spinning all around
G C D
Onward and upward and homeward bound
Em D C
Oh, Jesus, lead me through the night
G C D
Pillar of Fire
G C G
On through the passes of the mountains it goes
D C
As bouldered and broken as my heart
D C
I shiver and cry and I watch as it winds down
G C D C
To the deepest and the darkest parts
Chorus
C D/F#
Where, oh Lord, are You leading?
G G/F# C C/B Am
I can get so scared in the night
Am D
My feet are cut and bleeding
G C D
With every step I feel less alive
G C G
Oh, but Pillar of Fire, You blazed that trail
D C
You've been there every step along that road
D C
From a barn in Bethlehem to hell and back again
G C D C
You blazed the trail that leads me home
G
Always whirling, swirling
C D
And spinning all around
G C D
Onward and upward, now homeward bound
Em D C
Oh, Jesus, won't you hold me through the night
G C D
Pillar of Fjre
G
Oh now on to the ocean
C D
I follow it down
G
Where it sizzles and boils
C D
In the waves along the sound
Em D C
Oh, Jesus, lead me to the shore
G
