G
But be careful what you ask Him for
Em
Cause if youre gonna open up that door
C                               D
Theres no going back to before

Cause once you see a mother who cant feed
Em                              C
The baby that cries in her arms
C                               D
Your heart will break and youll lay awake

You pass him on the way to work
Em
He holds a sign beside the curb
C                                      G
You look away and avoid the hurt

G
Cause why should you be held responsible
Em
Besides he'll probably just spend it all
C                               D
On cigarettes and alcohol    mmmmmm




C                               D
But once you see that the man on the street
Em                                    C
Has a name and a family like you
C                                      D
Your heart will break and youll lay awake
Em                              
Cause youll understand God loves him, 
G

C          D        Em

Oh no

G
If you want a heart of sympathy
Em
Then pray to God to help you see

But once you see a world thats in need
Em                              C
And a sorrow you just cant ignore
C                                           D
Your hearts gonna break and youll lay awake
Em                              
Cause youll know you could do so much 
G
