They let him go they had no

Sudden healing

To think that providence would
D D/F G
Take a child from his mother while she prays

Who told us we'd be rescued
What has changed and why should we be saved
From nightmares
We're asking why this happens
To us who have died to live
A
It's unfair
Chrous:
D D/F G
This is what it means to be held how it feels
A D D/F
When the sacred is torn from your life
G
And you survive
A D D/F G
This is what it is to be loved and to know
A D D/F
That the promise was when everything fell
G A
We'd be held
Verse: Same chords as verse 1
This hand is bitterness
We want to taste it let the hatred numb
Our sorrow
The wise hand opens slowly
To lillies of the valley and
Tomorrow
Chorus
