        Dm       C
She's a castaway
  A#            F             Dm        C
Stranded on the island of her yesterdays
  A#            F                   Dm       C
Freedom was her ocean, but she got swept away
        A#                F
Little princess dreaming got lost somewhere
Dm         C A# F
in the waves

Left behind
She's been going at this all alone
since she was nine
But God loves you, He's got
a plan for you, she's heard all the lines
But when she opens up her heart nobody's
got the time

Dm                              C           A#
Could this be the day that you come to the rescue?
       Dm
She's desperate for the light but she's
 C              A#
never gonna ask you

Chorus:
F
One word, one hand
 C 
Tell me is that too high a price
Dm
One awkward moment
A#                    Gm
Could be the one that saves a life
F
Your hurt, your scars
 C 
God will use to open up her eyes
Dm
One awkward moment
                             A# F C
You'll see the gospel come alive
       A# F C
Come alive

Who are you to say
You've got shipwrecks of your own
You're too young in your faith
She's a smart one, she will
see right through your masquerade
You're scared that what you
don't know might push her away

But don't cave to the weight of
the fear that you're feeling
'Cause she's standing right here
and you're here for a reason

Chorus
                      Dm
You've walked in her shoes
                  C                  A# F
You've heard the lies, you know the pain
                    Dm                    C
But He's still the truth, He's still the life,
                A# F
He's still the way

Chorus:
One word, one hand
Tell me, is that too high a price?
One awkward moment
Could be the one that saves a life
Your hurt, your scars
God will use to open up her eyes
One awkward moment
You'll see the gospel come alive

You've walked in her shoes
You've heard the lies, you know the pain
Come alive
But He's still the truth, He's still the life,
He's still the way
Come alive
You've walked in her shoes
You've heard the lies, you know the pain
Come alive
But He's still the truth, He's still the life,
He's still the way
Could this be the day that you come to the rescue?
