Verse 1

Whe[Dm]re cross the[Am] crowde[Dm]d ways of life,
whe[Bb]re soun[F]d the cries[Am] of race and clan,
a[Bb]bove th[F]e noise of [C]selfish strife,
we[Dm] hear your v[Am]oice, [Dm]O Son of Man.

Verse 2

In[Dm] haunts of [Am]wretche[Dm]dness and need,
on[Bb] shado[F]wed threshold[Am]s fraught with fears,
fro[Bb]m paths [F]where hide[C] the lures of greed,
we[Dm] catch the v[Am]ision [Dm]of your tears.

Verse 3

Fro[Dm]m tender chi[Am]ldhood'[Dm]s helplessness,
fro[Bb]m hu[F]man grief a[Am]nd burdened toil,
  Bb   F   C
from famished souls, from sorrow's stress,
you[Dm]r heart has[Am] never[Dm] known recoil.

Verse 4

Th[Dm]e cup of w[Am]ater gi[Dm]ven for you
stil[Bb]l holds[F] the freshn[Am]ess of your grace;
ye[Bb]t long t[F]hese mul[C]titudes to view
th[Dm]e sweet comp[Am]assion[Dm] of your face.

Verse 5

O[Dm] Master, fr[Am]om the[Dm] mountainside,
mak[Bb]e hast[F]e to heal the[Am]se hearts of pain;
a[Bb]mong th[F]ese restle[C]ss throngs abide;
O[Dm] tread the ci[Am]ty's st[Dm]reets again;

Verse 6

Til[Dm]l all the world[Am] shall le[Dm]arn your love,
an[Bb]d fol[F]low where yo[Am]ur feet have trod;
til[Bb]l glor[F]ious from [C]your heaven above
sha[Dm]ll come the[Am] city [Dm]of our God.
