NC Am F Am F
Oh my son, you were born in a world that hates you
And I [Am]swear I will never fors[F]ake you
But t[C]here was a [G]Father [F]centuries ago
Who [C]watched his be[G]loved Son [F]di[D]e, oh, [F]di[G]e

Oh my [Am]son[F], I am [Am]weak and I'm [F]trembling
For the [Am]Lord I am always rem[F]embering
Oh [C]what a strong [G]Shepherd holds [F]you in his arms
He'll [C]break you and [G]make you his [F]ow[D]n, and then take you [F]ho[G]me

But [C]if I could I would protect you from [F]what you will [G]see
This [C]world may promise love and beauty, but [F]it lied to [Fm]me
And I will [C]show you, if you will [D]listen
And I will [F]promise[G] to listen, t[C]oo

Oh [F]yes, there are some who love the [C]lies
They will kill you if they [F]can
Though you speak the truth with l[C]ove
They will hate you like the [F]man Jesus
Alth[Em]ough he was God, he all[F]owed himself broken for [G]you

(Break - Play above verse's chords, replacing last part with line below)
Oh, all[F]owed himself broken for [G]you

And [C]if I could I would protect you from [F]what you will [G]see
This [C]world just might seem so alive, but [F]it's dead to [Fm]me
And I will [C]teach you, if you will [D]hear me
And I will [F]promise to hear you, [C]too
Yes, I [F]do[G]

Oh my [Am]son[F], [Am]I am only your [F]brother
For a [Am]sister, God gave me your [F]mother
But j[C]ust like a [G]mother [F]so long ago
Had to [C]watch her be[G]loved son [F]die, [D]die
Oh son, we will [F]try to let you [G]go[Am]

(Spoken)

The Lord says he gave us his son
Why won't you give him your life in return?
All of it, why not?
He loves us
