Intro
G#sus2
[Verse 1]
E A
He wakes up to daven while it's still early
C#m F#m A E
He gives one last look in the crib at his baby
E A
He stands there a moment, thinking in his heart
A E F#m C#m
Hashem, please protect my family from harm
E A
Out on the street he helps an old man across
C#m F#m A E
And makes his way on the crosstown bus
E A
He waits on the platform for just one more train
A E B7 E
And whatever Hashem has in store for today

The soldier, he sees him and fires his load
A E B7 E
But the stone has been thrown so long ago
