        Bm7               Gm              Dm/F#             Gm     
We have sung the songs of victory,we have prayed to You for rain, 
        Em9               Am9          Dm/F#           Gm 
We have cried for Your Compassion, to renew the land again; 
            Bm7             Gm            Dm/F#          Gm  
Now we're standing in Your presence, more hungry than before, 
          Em9              Am9               Dm/F#             Gm 
Now we're on Your steps of mercy, and we're knocking at Your door. 
     Bm7              Gm                Dm/F# 
How long, before You drench the barren land, 
    Am4 Am          Em9                Bm7  
How long, before we see Your righteous hand; 
Am9  Dm9              Gm             Dm/F#   
How long, before Your name is lifted right, 
    Am4 Am           Em9              Bm7  Am9 Dm9 
How long, before the weeping turns to songs of joy.

         Bm7                Gm             Dm/F#         Gm 
Lord, we know Your heart is broken, by the evil that You see, 
           Em9                 Am4   Am          Dm/F#            Gm
And You've stayed Your hand of judgment, for You plan to set men free; 
         Bm7             Gm                  Dm/F#             Gm 
But the land is still in darkness, and we've fled from what is rigth, 
        Em9               Am4    Am          Dm/F#           Gm 
We have failed the silent children, who have never seen the ligth. 
    Dm9              Gm                Dm/F# 
How long, before You drench the barren land, 
    Am4 Am          Em9                Bm7 
How long, before we see Your righteous hand; 
Am9  Dm9              Gm             Dm/F#   
How long, before Your name is lifted right, 
    Am4 Am           Em9              Bm7  Am9 Dm9 
How long, before the weeping turns to songs of joy.
