Intro: D  C

verse 1
D  C                             D  C
     A man lay dying in the streets
D  C                             D  C
     A thousand people fell down on their knees
     G
     Any other day he would have been

     Preaching
D  C                        D  C
     Reaching all the people there
D  C                        D  C
     Oh Lord Lord
