INTRO: C  G  Am  C  F    C  G  (3x)   C  G  Am  C  F    

           Em          Am
They'll be gathering together
        F                   C          G     Em
Sharing hearts and hands as first rays fall
           Am
All our connected lives
  F                  G      
Arriving down by the mission wall


    Em                 Am
And sometimes it's not easy
          F                C        G    Em
To take a step outside and face the day
                      Am
'Cause part of you forever
        F          G      C
In this place will always stay


Em            Am
Tear away the pages
          F                 C   G   Em
Keep them locked up in your memory
            Am
We all open morning doors
   F                G   
Go walking out with destiny


     Em              Am
All around, familiar faces
       F           C        G     Em
Voices ringing out warm and near
                    Am
They take us to the moment
        F          G      
And the dance that leads us


CHORUS:
C     G    Am
Bless this day
G F      C
I say, I pray
      Em         F 
We'll take this day
      C
For always


INTERLUDE: C  G  Am  C  F    C  G  C  G  Am  G  F   


          Em             Am
You'll be frozen in your moment
          F             C      G    Em
You'll be beautiful for all of time
               Am
Waiting on the wonder road
      F                 G      
Where saints and angels walk the line


    Em                 Am
And someday much, much older
            F                  C      G     Em
You'll look back and chance to dream aloud
                   Am
Was there a moment greater
            F        G      
Than one to make someone proud


CHORUS:
C     G    Am
Bless this day
G F      C
I say, I pray
      Em        F 
We'll take this day
      C
For always
