Tears of the Saints - Leeland

Capo on 4rth fret

Intro: Em-C-D-Bm

                Em

There are many prodigal sons
            C
On our city streets they run
                       D
Searching for shelter
                 Em
There are homes broken down
               C
People's hopes have fallen to the ground
          D
From failures

                 Am
This is an emergency!


Refrain:
                 C
There are tears from the saints
                              D
For the lost and unsaved
                                   Am
We're crying for them come back home
                                   C                        D
We're crying for them come back home
                    C
And all your children will stretch out their hands
              G                      D
And pick up the crippled man
                       Am
Father, we will lead them home
                        C           D-Bm-Em   C-D-Bm
Father, we will lead them  home...

                   Em
There are schools full of hatred
           C
Even churches have forsaken
                 D
Love and mercy
             Em
May we see this generation
            C
In it's state of desperation
                D
For Your glory

                 Am
This is an emergency!
(Refrain except last line)

...Father, we will lead them   home...

 D                   C           G
Sinner, reach out your hands
   D               C            G
Children in Christ you stand
 D                   C           G
Sinner, reach out your hand
   D             Em         C-Am
Children in Christ you stand
(Refrain)

                    C
And all your children will stretch out their hands
              G                      D
And pick up the crippled man
                       Am
Father, we will lead them home
                        C           D-Bm-C
Father, we will lead them home...
