Intro
Am G Dm
[Verse 1]
Am G Dm
Mother, how far did you deviate?
Am G Dm
Alone in the dark as you would meditate
Am G Dm
Did you conceive of us when in multitude above
F G
Bearing us forth in labour pains of love?
[Verse 2]
Am G Dm
The bridge collapsed but you took the stone
Am G Dm
From the ash an altar raised, you rebuilt your home
Am G Dm
Hunger for concourse, you brought us to life
F G
Crawling, standing, running, towards the light
[Chorus 1]
Am G F
And though we'll face the spite, of thousands
Am G F
And cynics they will try, to tempt and change our minds
G F
We'll keep our faith alive, we'll raise our voices
G
And scream it from our hearts: God loves her children
[Instrumental]
Am G Dm
[Verse 3]
Am G Dm
Blinded in the conclave we offer our trust
Am G Dm
Shaking and bound in the angel lust
Am G Dm
Our mouths are open, we wait to receive
F G
G sign and the scraps of truth of what we believe
[Chorus 2]
Am G F
And though we'll face the spite, of thousands
Am G F
Nonbelievers they will try, to tempt and change our minds
G F
We'll keep our faith alive, we'll raise our voices
G
And scream it from our hearts: God loves her children
[Instrumental]
Am G Dm
Am G Dm
[Chorus 3]
Am G F
And though we'll face the spite, of thousands
Am G F
And cynics they will try, to tempt and change our minds
G F
We know we'll never die alone and frightened
G F
Just closer to the last communion without her
G F
We'll keep our faith alive, we'll raise our voices
G
And scream it from our hearts: God loves her children
[Bridge]
Am G Dm
The passion, the pain, our bodies ache, we cry your name
Am G Dm
The passion, the pain, our bodies ache, we cry your name
Am G Dm
The passion, the pain, our bodies ache, we cry your name
Am G Dm
The passion, the pain
[Outro]
