[Am] [D]
This world has never been [G] in the awful [D] shape it's in
Jesus [A] take a hold and [D] lead us through
Like the ancient Roman Empire
[A] This world is doomed to [D] fall
And it's much too big a thing for mortal man
[G] Just take a look around and [D] see the writing [Bm] on the wall
[D] Somehow we've [A] got to find a [D] helping hand
This world has never been [G] in the awful [D] shape it's in
And people have [A] scorned the things our [D] leaders do
It's time a prayer was spoken [G] from the heart of [D] every [Dm] man
[D]
Jesus take [A] a hold and lead [D] us through
[Am] [D] The mighty roar of gunfire [A] is now a local [D] sound
And our city streets are filled with angry [Dm] men
[D] [G] Love is now a mockery
[D] throughout our troubled [Bm] land
and
[D] Instruction seems [A] to be the current [D] trend
[Dm]
[D] This world has never been [G] in the awful shape [D] it's in
And people doubt [A] the things our [D] leaders do
It's time a prayer was spoken from [G] the heart of every [D] man
Jesus take a [A] hold and lead us [D] through
[Dm]
[D] This world has never [G] been in the awful shape [D] it's in
