Chorus:

  F/E^b      E^bmaj7 F/E^b  E^bmaj7     D^m                        G^m

I know it will be worth it when I hear Him call my name

  F/E^b      E^bmaj7 F/E^b   E^bmaj7        A^b                        E^b/G    

I know it will be worth it when my loss becomes my gain

G^b                     G^b/A^b                 B^b/F        G^sus4  G

If by grace I’m standing when eternity begins

      C^m                                 E^b/F F⁷  B^b

My journey will be worth it in    the end

Verse I:

         E^b2                                     G^m       F/G    G^m

They said I’d never make it, no matter how I tried

       E^b2                                                      A^b                        F/A

It’s much too hard to walk the line, someday you’ll compromise

                 C^m                        F                       D^m7                     G^m

But Jesus said “My yoke is easy, and you’ll find My burdens light”

   E^b/C                B^b/D                 B^b/F   F

I know it will be worth it to live right

Verse II

   E^b2                                                G^m            F/G      G^m

I can’t afford the pleasure that this world has offered me

        E^b2                                              A^b                         F/A

The price is always higher than they promised it would be

                  C^m                    F                 D^m7                        G^m

But Jesus said the road is narrow that leads to Heaven’s gates

   E^b/C                    B^b/D                B^b/F   F

I know I’ve got to make it all the way
