Intro
Em D Am
[Verse 1]
Em D Am
Mother, how far did you deviate?
Em D Am
Alone in the dark as you would meditate
Em D Am
Did you conceive of us when in multitude above
C D
Bearing us forth in labour pains of love?
[Verse 2]
Em D Am
The bridge collapsed but you took the stone
Em D Am
From the ash an altar raised, you rebuilt your home
Em D Am
Hunger for concourse, you brought us to life
C D
Crawling, standing, running, towards the light
[Chorus 1]
Em D C
And though we'll face the spite, of thousands
Em D C
And cynics they will try, to tempt and change our minds
D C
We'll keep our faith alive, we'll raise our voices
D
And scream it from our hearts: God loves her children
[Instrumental]
Em D Am
[Verse 3]
Em D Am
Blinded in the conclave we offer our trust
Em D Am
Shaking and bound in the angel lust
Em D Am
Our mouths are open, we wait to receive
C D
D sign and the scraps of truth of what we believe
[Chorus 2]
Em D C
And though we'll face the spite, of thousands
Em D C
Nonbelievers they will try, to tempt and change our minds
D C
We'll keep our faith alive, we'll raise our voices
D
And scream it from our hearts: God loves her children
[Instrumental]

Em D Am
[Chorus 3]
Em D C
And though we'll face the spite, of thousands
Em D C
And cynics they will try, to tempt and change our minds
D C
We know we'll never die alone and frightened
D C
Just closer to the last communion without her
D C
We'll keep our faith alive, we'll raise our voices
D
And scream it from our hearts: God loves her children
[Bridge]
Em D Am
The passion, the pain, our bodies ache, we cry your name
Em D Am
The passion, the pain, our bodies ache, we cry your name
Em D Am
The passion, the pain, our bodies ache, we cry your name
Em D Am
The passion, the pain
