Verse: 
     Am/G     G
I can't unsee
             Am/G    G
What I've just seen
         D/F#       Em    
I can't make sense 
                                        D/F#  Em
of one more senseless tragedy
      D/F#   G
Another light
         Am/G   G
Put out by dark
          D/F#      Em  
This wicked world just 
                                      D/F#     Em
makes me wonder where You are
 
Chorus:
                      C
Jesus, be close to the broken hearted
                G
Save those who are crushed in spirit
             D 
We know 
                                                 Em  D/F#  G
that You've always been our only     hope

Be near when our minds are flooded with fear
                                                    D
Be the hand that's wiping our tears
                 
And the voice that whispers
  Em   D/F#  G        G/H   C
"Weary soul,     be still and know
          D               G
I'll always be close"

Verse 2: 
        Am/G         G
Where there is hate
            Am/G     G
Let there be peace
            D/F#     Em   
When I don't see a change let change
      D/F#           Em
 begin with me
              D/F#       G
And where there is evil
            Am/G    G
Be not dismayed
             D/F#     Em                              
Give me the strength 
                               D/F#     Em
to stare that evil in the face and say
