I know I (Gm)can not com pre hend the hurt you’ve known,

and I (Ebmaj7)used to think it mat tered if I un der stood, but now I just don’t know.

Well, I’ll ad (Gm)mit some times I still wish I knew what to say,

and I keep (Gm)look ing for a way to fix it all.

But we (Ebmaj7)know we’re at the mer cy of God’s high er ways, and our ways are so small.

But (Ebmaj9)I will car ry you to Je sus.

And if you need to cry,
