[Verse 1]
[G]Lor[C]d, [G]bless the least of us
Over[C]look the beast in us
So [D]many struggles you bestow
[G]God sate the black in us[C][G]
[C]Overlook the black in us
And [D]watch as our sacred dreams explode
[G]And[C] gr[G]ant [C]us mercy[G]
[Am]Grant us [Em]mer cy,
[G]grant us [C]mercy on the [D]desolate [G]road[C]
[G]Lord, fill the need in us
[C]Overlook the greed in us
Give us [D]twenty times more
than we are [G]owed
Heal the divide in us
[C]Overlook the pride in us
[D]Unburden us from all the
fear [G]we've sowed
And grant [C]us mer[G]cy,
[Am]grant us [Em]mercy,[G]
Grant us [C]mercy on the
[D]desert [G]road
[Bm]There's a cloud bank up [Em]ahead,
[Bm]Above the hills a coral [Em]ray
[C]Tell me, is the rain about to [G]fall?[Am]
To quench the thirst of one [D]and all?
[G]Heal the divide in us
[C]Overlook the pride in us
Release [D]us from all the hatred
we've [G]sowed[C]
[G]Warm the chill in us
In[C]vigorate the will in us
Our pa[D]tience and our good sense
[G]In [C]grant [G]us [C]mercy,[G]
[Am]grant us [Em]mercy,
[G]Grant us [C]mercy on the
[D]desolate [G]road.
[Bm]There's a cloudbank up ahead
[Em]Abov[Bm]e the hills of coral ray[Em]
[C]Tell me there's a rain about to fall
[G]To [Am]quench the thirst
of one [D]and all
[G]Forgive our sinful ways,
[C]forget our wasted days
[D]Overlook each time my ego is showed
[G]An [C]d g[G]ran[C]t us mercy,[G]
[Am]grant us [Em]mercy
[G]Grant us [C]mercy on the [D]desolate [G]road
