[Intro]
Dm Bb F C (repeat)

Dm Bb
lost in a windswept land

F C
in a world of shifting sand

Dm Bb F C
a fragile flower stands apart

Dm Bb
and there in that barren ground

F C
you feel like you're the only one

Dm Bb F C
trying to serve Him with all your heart

Dm Bb F C
and you wonder, wonder can you last much longer

Dm Bb
this cloud you are under

F C
will it cover you


[Chorus]

Dm Bb
desert rose, desert rose

F C
don't you worry, don't be lonely

Dm Bb
heaven knows, heaven knows

F C
in a dry and weary land

Bb
a flower grows

F C Bb
His desert rose

Dm Bb F C
desert rose



Dm Bb
sometimes holiness

F C
can seem like emptiness

Dm Bb F C
when you feel the whole world's laughing eyes

Dm Bb
but if it's a lonely day

F C
know you're on the Father's way

Dm Bb F C
He will hear you when you cry

Dm Bb
and He will hold you, hold you

F C
your Father will hold you

Dm Bb
He will love you, love you

F C
for the things you do

[Repeat chorus]
