[VERSE 1]
          C             Csus      C
The river runs tears of desperate hearts 
             Am       Gsus         F
What we have seen has left us torn apart
        C          Csus             C
Will it stop cause this is just too hard 
         Am            Gsus      F
We are a people at the end of ourselves
         Am            Gsus      F
We are a people at the end of ourselves

[CHORUS]
     Csus  C              G6    G
Have mer - cy, O God have mer - cy 
       Am                 G6      G
We are broken down we are hurting now 
     Csus  C              G6    G
Have mer - cy, O God have mer - cy
       Am                   G6       G
On our knees we pray all we know to say 
         Am     Gsus  C
God have mercy

[VERSE 2]
           C              Csus            C
God be the light that the darkness cannot hide 
       Am              Gsus         F
Be the truth that will silence every lie 
          C          Csus        C
Oh be the love that alone can unify 
         Am            Gsus      F
We are a people at the end of ourselves
         Am            Gsus      F
We are a people at the end of ourselves

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]
        F                 C
Give us strength to carry on 
            Am                          G
Cause right now everything feels so far gone 

                 F               C
If there’s still hope, it’s you alone 
         Am            Gsus      F
We are a people at the end of ourselves
         Am            Gsus      F
We are a people at the end of ourselves

[CHORUS]

[TAG]
            Am     Gsus  C
Oh God have mercy 
         Am    Gsus  C
God have mercy
