— Lyric & Chord Sheet
©2026 Susan Barker Nikitenko
Key of G (easy for guitar & piano)
Tempo: Gentle, steady, hopeful
Verse 1
G
Sometimes people say things
Em
That make us feel sad,
C
That make us feel blue,
D
That make us feel mad,
G
And giving up too.
G
But right in the middle
Em
Of all of those fears,
C
Jesus leans close
D
And He dries every tear.
Chorus
G
Jesus speaks louder
D/F#
Than the voices that shake us,
Em
Stronger than the words
C
That try to break us.
G
His love is a banner
D/F#
That forever covers—
Em
Ever so speaking,
C
“Child, you are Mine.”
G
Jesus speaks louder,
D
Jesus speaks louder,
C
And His truth wins
D
Every time.
Verse 2
G
Sometimes we hear whispers
Em
That say we’re not enough,
C
That we’ll never make it,
D
That life is too tough.
G
But those are just shadows
Em
That fade in His light—
C
He steps beside us
D
And helps us to fight.
Chorus (repeat)
(Same chords as above)
Bridge
Em
When the world feels heavy,
D
And our hearts feel small,
C
He lifts our chin
G/B
And reminds us all:
Em
“You’re chosen, you’re cherished,
D
You’re held in My hand—
C
Stand tall, My child,
D
In the strength of the Lamb.”
Final Chorus
(Same chords as earlier — big, warm, victorious)
