Can you _ _ hear _ _ the prayer of the _ _ children?
_ _ Abandoned [Em] me _ [E] _ in the shadow of an [D] unknown
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] Empty [G] _ _ eyes _ with no [Em] more tears to [G] cry
_ [C] Turning _ headward _ _ toward [G] the light
_ _ _ Crying, Jesus help [Bm] me to [G] see the morning [E] _
light
Of one more day
But if I [C] should die before I wake [Em] _ _ [G] _ my [D] soul today
_ [Bb] _ _ _ [G] Can you _ feel _ _ the hearts of the children?
_ _ _ [Bm] _ [C] Aching for _ hope for something of their very [D] _ own
_ [G] Reaching _ hands _ with nothing [C] to hold on to
But hope for [Am] a better [C]
day
A better [G] day _
_ Crying, Jesus [Em] help [Bm] me to feel the [C] love again
In my own
_ _ [E] But if [Em] unknown roars lead [A] away from home _ _
Give [D] me loving _ _ _ _ _ _ away from home _ _
_ _ [Em] _ Oh _ _ _ la la [D] la la la [C] _
la la la [C] la la
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
Can _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
you hear _ the _ _ _ _ voice of the children? _
_ _ _ _ Softly [Em] pleading for silence in this shattered [D] _
world.
_ [G] _ Angry _ guns _ preach a gospel full of hate.
Blood of the [C] innocent _ _ _ on [G] their heads.
_ _ Crying, Jesus, _ [Em] help [G] me to [Bm] feel the sun again.
Upon my face.
_ For when darkness clears, I know [Cm] you're near.
_ _ [Em] Bringing [D] peace _ again.
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Dali ch'u yin te.
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ Sve d'yit sh'e bolid fe.
_ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] The prayer on [D] the chair.
