NC Am F Am F
Oh my son, you were born in a world that hates you

But there was a Father centuries ago
C G F D F G
Who watched his beloved Son die, oh, die
[Verse 2]

He'll break you and make you his own, and then take you home

And I will show you, if you will listen
F G C
And I will promise to listen, too
[Bridge]

Oh yes, there are some who love the lies
F
They will kill you if they can

F G
Oh, allowed himself broken for you
[Chorus]
C F G
And if I could I would protect you from what you will see

This world just might seem so alive, but it's dead to me

Yes, I do
