[Intro]
Bb C Bb C


[Verse]
FI saw my name written in,
         Dmdeep within the well as I drank from it
     F(and dug within your palms) as you offered this,
             DmI felt you gaze at me
         Cbut with quickened step,
                              Dmmy feet spoke faster than the sentence
     Dmthat clawed at my heels
          Cmore than sentiment; I knew that you looked at me
    Dmbut not that intently


[Chorus]
           Bbmaj7You sang, "Listen, listen!
                          CCan't you hear creation groaning?
                       BbThe heels of lions are moaning for movement
                               Cand everything is shaking that could be shaken
           Bbmaj7and I only ask, o God! do I plead
                  Cthat you would abide and remain in me
            Bb                        Coh, 'cause I, I am jealous for your safety."


[Verse]
          F                                          C"When I saw you, it was like walking through the street
                          Dmjust crowds of endless grief
                                        Bbthrough the walls past which I could see
            C               Fthrough the windows obsolete
                                 C'cause I saw every tear, every sigh
                       Dmevery wasted minute by
                              Bbevery inch of my father's design
      Cevery second of life denied."


[Bridge] (single strums)
         Bbmaj7"and oh, child, if I could,
            BbI'd throw myself before your tracks
         Dm                      Fbut I've already done that, I've already done that
        Bbso that maybe you would stop, o God! would you see...
        Dm                        F             Cbut now my blood is drying on the soles of your feet."

         Bbmaj7"so come back, come back, retreat, come back, come back, come back, retreat, come back!"


[Chorus]
Bbmaj7                        C   Can't you hear creation groaning?
                       BbThe heels of lions are moaning for movement
                               Cand everything is shaking that could be shaken
           Bband I only ask, o God! do I plead
                 Cthat you would abide and remain in me
           Bb                       Coh, 'cause I, I am jealous for your safety, yeah, yeah
