To Believe Jackie Evancho
[F] [Bb] [F] [C]
[F]Before I lay me down to [Am]rest
[F]I ask the Lord one small [Am]request
[F]I know I have all I could [Am]need
But this [F]prayer is [Bb]not for [C]me
[F]Too many [C]people on this [Am]day
[F]Don't have a peaceful place to [Am]stay
[Bb]Let all fighting cease that your [F]children may see peace
Wipe their [Bb]tears of so[F]rro[C]w a[F]way[C]
(chorus)
[F]To believe in a [Am]day
[Bb]When hunger and [C]war will pass [Dm]away
[Bb]To have the hope amidst d[Dm]espair
[Bb]That every sparrow's [F]counted
[Bb]That you hear their cries and [C#]listen to each [F]prayer
[F]Let me try always to [Am]believe
[F]That we can heal the hearts that [Am]grieve
[Bb]Please help us not ignore
[F]The anguished cries of the[Dm] poor
Or their [Bb]pain will [F]never [C]leave
(chorus )
[F]To believe in a [Am]day
[Bb]When hunger and war will [C]pass [Dm]away
[Bb]To have the hope amidst [Dm]despair
[G]That every sparrow's [F]counted
[Bb]That you hear their cries and [F#]listen to each [F]prayer
(spoken prayer)
[C#]Father, as you see, I'm just a child
[G#]And there's so [C]much to unders[D#]tand
[G]But if Your Grace should surround me
[G#]I'll do the very best I can
[D#]I promise, I[F]'ll do the very best [C#]I can[F] [C]
(chorus plus)
To [Bm]belie[G]ve in a [Bm]day
[C]When hunger and [Dm]war will pass [Em]away
To have the [C]hope amidst [Em]despair
That [Am]every sparrow's [Bm]counted
[C]That you hear their cries and [D#]listen to each [Em]prayer
[Am]Help us do Your will oh [Bm]Father
In the [C]name of all that's [G]true
[Bm]And we'll [Dm]see in one [G]ano[Bm]ther
The [C]lov[D#]ing [Dm]imag[G]e [Dm]of [G]You
