[Verse 1]
         A              
Mary, she knows
      C#m
In a world that's dark
                   A
Torn apart at the seams
    C#m                                              
She lifts up her eyes
                   A
Up to the skies and sings,
          C#m             A            C#m           
"I am my beloved's, and He loves me as I am.."


[Verse 2]
            A
Sometimes I cry,
      C#m
The world is dark
                   A
Torn apart at the seams
   C#m
I lift up my eyes,
                     A
Up to the skies and sing,
          C#m      
"I am my beloved's"

As I am
      A    E  A     E   B
As I am


[Verse 3]
                A
Sometimes it's hard
        C#m                              A
Though patiently you look for the time to see
           C#m            A
Whose are you? Whose are you?
        C#m
"I am my beloved's"
     A
My beloved's
         C#m
I am my beloved's
        B           A
And He loves me as I am
         C#m
I am my beloved's
       B
Yes He loves me
      A    E   A    E   B
As I am
      A    E  A     E   B
As I am
