Intro: G D G  Cadd9 x 2 

G               D 
You who live in heaven  
         Cadd9                           Dsus    D 
Hear the prayers of those of us who live on earth  
         G              D                Cadd9 
Who are afraid of being left by those we love  
           Em7           Dsus    D 
And who get hardened by the hurt  

   Am           G                   Cadd9                  
Do you remember when You lived down here  
           Dsus    D 
where we all scrape  
   Am                G             Cadd9 
To find the faith to ask for daily bread  
     Am          G             D/F#           G  
Did You forget about us after You had flown away  
       Am         G            Cadd9 
Well I memorized every word You said 
Am                       G            Cadd9 
  Still I'm so scared, I'm holding my breath 
      Am                   Dsus    D       G    
While You're up there just playing hard to get  

 G  D  G   Cadd9   
    
G               D 
You who live in radiance 
         Cadd9                           Dsus    D 
Hear the prayers of those of us who live in skin  
          G                 D                   Cadd9 
We have a love that's not as patient as Yours was  
         Em7           Dsus    D 
Still we do love now and then  
    Am            G 
Did You ever know loneliness  
    Cadd9        Dsus  D 
Did You ever know need 
       Am                G                Cadd9 
Do You remember just how long a night can get?  
    Am              G  
When You were barely holding on  
    D/F#                G 
And Your friends fall asleep  
          Am                   G              Cadd9 
And don't see the blood that's running in Your sweat  
    Am                 G                Cadd9  
Will those who mourn be left uncomforted  
     Am                    Dsus    D       G 
While You're up there just playing hard to get?  



C                          G 
   And I know you bore our sorrows  
Am7                        G    
   And I know you feel our pain 
C                          Bm 
   And I know it would not hurt any less  
Am        G              D/F#  D 
  Even if it could be explained  
Em               D/F#  G 
  And I know that I am only lashing out  
       Am              G      C 
At the One who loves me most  
Am     G           D/F#          G  
   And after I have figured this, somehow 
Am                     Dsus   D 
   All I really need to know 

      G               D 
Is if You who live in eternity 
         Cadd9                            Dsus   D 
Hear the prayers of those of us who live in time  
   G                D 
We can't see what's ahead  
          Cadd9           Em7             Dsus    D 
And we can not get free of what we've left behind 
    Am                 G               Cadd9           Dsus   D 
I'm reeling from these voices that keep screaming in my ears 
        Am                 G                Cadd9  
All the words of shame and doubt, blame and regret 

  Am                   G            D/F#               G 
I can't see how You're leading me unless You've led me here  
          Am             G             Cadd9 
Where I'm lost enough to let myself be led  
    Am                  G           Cadd9 
And so You've been here all along I guess  
              Am                Dsus        D      G 
It's just Your ways and You are just plain hard to get 
D G  Cadd9  G
