hums of our hearts will keep beating as one

Good God can you help us, restore what is yours

       A/C#                       Am7b5
How to hold something hands can't contain?
[Chorus 2]
                G           Em
So I will carry on 'til the day

in this world in this time, how could you leave so many behind?

   D       C
No time to explain

        D           Em
Nothing else but to pray

        D                C
For the strength to move on

         D    B7     Em
And that love will remain
