HELD by Crista Wells Sung by Natalie Grant

Capo 1st fret
I think this fills in the song a little more on the bridge and other areas

Intro: D MajorD F# minorF#m E minorEm A(light and flowing)

Verse
G+G       A augmentedA
Two months is too little
D MajorD        F# minorF#m
They let him go, they had no
G+G    A augmentedA
Sudden healing
G+G       A augmentedA
To think that providence would
D MajorD          F# minorF#m        G+G
Take a child from his mother while she prays
   A augmentedA    A augmentedA
Is appalling

G+G       A augmentedA
Who told us we'd be rescued
D MajorD        F# minorF#m          G+G
What has changed and why should we be saved
   A augmentedA
From nightmares
G+G       A augmentedA
We're asking why this happens
D MajorD    F# minorF#m       G+G
To us, who have died to live
    A augmentedA
It's unfair

Chrous:
A augmentedA      D MajorD      F# minorF#m     G+G
This is what it means to be held, how it feels
     A augmentedA    D MajorD       F# minorF#m
When the sacred is torn from your life
G+G
And you survive
A augmentedA      D MajorD      F# minorF#m     G+G
This is what it is to be loved, and to know
     A augmentedA    D MajorD       F# minorF#m
That the promise was when everything fell
G+G     A augmentedA  A augmentedA
We'd be held

G+G       A augmentedA
This hand is bitterness
D MajorD        F# minorF#m          G+G
We want to taste it, let the hatred numb
   A augmentedA
Our sorrow
G+G       A augmentedA
The wise hand opens slowly
D MajorD     F# minorF#m       G+G
To lillies of the valley and
   A augmentedA
Tomorrow

Chorus(change of key)

Bridge
C# minorC#m    AbAb   E MajorE    BB
If hope is born of suffering
C# minorC#m    AbAb   E MajorE    BB
If this is only the beginning
C# minorC#m         AbAb
Can we not wait for one hour
     C# minorC#m     A augmentedA
Watching for our Savior
