	In the time of my	confession, in the	hour of my deepest	need

	Db	Bbm	Ab	Absus	Ab
When the	pool of tears	beneath my feet flood	every	newborn	seed

	Db	Bbm	Db	Bbm
There's a	dyin' voice	within me	reaching out some	where,

	Db	Bbm	Ab	Asusb	Ab
	Toiling in the	danger and in	the mora	ls of d	espair.

	Ab7	Db	Ab
Don't have the in	clination to look b	ack on any mist	ake,

Like Cain, I now	behold this chain of e	vents that I must br	eak.

In the	fury of the m	oment I can	see the Master's h	and

In ev	ery leaf that t	rembles and,	in ever	y grain of	sand.

	And every time I	pass that way I	always hear my	name.

Then	onward in my	journey I	come to unde	rstand

	Db	Bbm	Ab	Db
	That every hair is	numbered like	every grain of	sand.

	Db	Bbm	Db	Bbm
	I have gone from rags to	riches in the	sorrow of the	night

	In the violence of a	summer's dream, in the c	hill of	a wintry	light,

In the	bitter dance of	loneliness	fading into	space,
