Capo second fret

D                                                   G          A       D
There comes a time, when we heed a certain call.

the greatest gift of all.

We can’t go on pretending day by day

That someone, somewhere will soon make a change

We are all a part of God’s great big family

And their lives will be stronger and free
.      Bm                             F#m
As God has shown us by turning stones to bread
