Key of G [Verse 1]
         G
I can't unsee
What I've just seen
              Em                              C
I can't make sense of one more senseless tragedy

         G
Another light
Put out by dark
            Em                                    C
This wicked world just makes me wonder where You are
[Chorus]
            C
Jesus, be close to the broken hearted

       G
Save those who are crushed in spirit

     D                                Em
We know that You've always been our only hope

    C                                     G
Be near when our minds are flooded with fear

                                D
Be the hand that's wiping our tears
And the voice that whispers
  Em              C
"Weary soul, be still and know

       D         G
I'll always be close"
[Verse 2]
                 G
Where there is hate
Let there be peace
              Em                                C
When I don't see a change let change begin with me

                     G
And where there is evil
Be not dismayed
              Em                                 C
Give me the strength to stare that evil in the face and say
[Chorus]
            C
Jesus, be close to the broken hearted

       G
Save those who are crushed in spirit

     D                                Em
We know that You've always been our only hope

    C                                     G
Be near when our minds are flooded with fear

                                D
Be the hand that's wiping our tears
And the voice that whispers
  Em              C
"Weary soul, be still and know

       D         G
I'll always be close"
[Bridge]
          C
In our hurting, be close

           G
In our grieving, be close

          D
In our crying, be close

    Em
We need You, Lord we need You

          C
In our families, be close

          G
In our country, be close

         D
In this lost world, be close

    Em
We need You
[Chorus]
            C
Jesus, be close to the broken hearted

       G
Save those who are crushed in spirit

     D                                Em
We know that You've always been our only hope

    C                                     G
Be near when our minds are flooded with fear

                                D
Be the hand that's wiping our tears
And the voice that whispers
  Em              C
"Weary soul, be still and know

       D         G
I'll always be close"

     G
Be close
