If you want a heart of sympathy
C5
Then pray to God to help you, please
E5
See the world that Jesus sees
G5
Yeah

G5
But be careful what you ask Him for
C5
Cause if you?re gonna open up that door
E5                        G5
There?s no going back to before

C5                     D5
Cause once you see a mother who can?t feed
E5                        C5
The baby that cries in her arms
C5                        D5
Your heart will break and you?ll lay awake
E5                              A5
No, sleep won?t come quick anymore
C5              D5             G5
So do you want to know?

G5
You pass him on the way to work
C5
He holds a sign beside the curb
E5                               G5
You look away and avoid the hurt

G5
Cause why should you be held responsible
C5
Besides, he?ll probably just spend it all
E5                        G5
On cigarettes and alcohol




C5                        D5
But once you see that the man on the street
E5                              C5
Has a name and a family like you
C5                               D5
Your heart will break and you?ll lay awake
E5                        
Cause you?ll understand God loves him , 
A5
too
C5               D5               G5
So do you want to know?
Oh, no

G5
If you want a heart of sympathy
C5
Then pray to God to help you see

C5                  D5
But once you see a world that?s in need
E5                        C5
And a sorrow you just can?t ignore
C5                                  D5
Your heart?s gonna break and you?ll lay awake
E5                        
Cause you?ll know you could do so much 
A5
more
C5          D5           G5 
Do you want to know?
