I will speak no more.
[F] I shall abide until [Dm] I am spoken for, if it be your will.

burning hearts [F] in hell.
[Eb] If it be [Bb] your will to [F] make us well,
[Bb] and draw [Cm] us near, [Ab]
oh [Gm] bind us tight.
[Bb] All your [Cm] children here [Eb] in their rags of [Bb] [Gm] light, in our rags [F] of light,
