[Verse 1]
G D G G7
I passed a home, the other day
C G G7
The yard was filled, with kids at play
C G
And on the side-walk of this home
D G
A little boy, stood all alone
D G G7
His smiling face, was sweet and kind
C G G7
But I could see, the boy was blind
C G
He listened to, the children play
D G G7
I bowed my head, and there I prayed
[Chorus]
C F C
Dear Lord above, why must this be
G C G G7
And in these words, came down to me
C G
After all, you’re just a man
D G G7
It’s not for you, to understand
C F C
It’s not for you, to reason why
G C G G7
You too are blind, without my eyes
C G
So, question not, what I command
D G
It’s not for you, to understand
[Instrumental]

G D G G7
Now when I pray, my prayer has won
C G G7
I pray His will, not mine be done
C G
After all, I’m just a man
D G G7
And it’s not for me, to understand
[Chorus]
C F C
Dear Lord above, why must this be
G C G G7
And in these words, came down to me
C G
After all, you’re just a man
D G G7
It’s not for you, to understand
C F C
It’s not for you, to reason why
G C G G7
You too are blind, without my eyes
C G
So, question not, what I command
D G
It’s not for you, to understand
