D-DU-UDU
In  prisoners' chains  with  bleeding stripes
Paul  and Silas prayed  that night
   *  *(traditional walk down  to )
 And in their pain began to sing
Their  chains were loosed  and they  were free
I  bless Your name, I  bless Your name
 *  *(walk up  to )
 I give You honor, give You praise
 You are the Life,  the  Truth, the Way
I  bless Your name,  I bless  Your name
Some  midnight hour  if  you should find
You're  in a prison  in  your mind
 Reach out and praise,  defy those  chains
And  they will fall  in Jesus'  name
We  bless Your name,  we bless Your name
We  give You honor, give  You praise
 You are the Life,  the  Truth, the Way
We  bless Your name,  we  bless Your name
 You are the Life,  the  Truth, the Way
We  bless Your  name, we  bless Your  name
 *  walk down  walk up

 If you are strumming this works OK.
 But you can substitute a Bbmaj7 for the F
 if you are finger picking or just to add a little flavor to the transition to the G.
