C                                     G        F
I think I'm gonna cry myself to sleep tonight
 C                            G           F
'Cause something in this world just ain't right
Dm                            C
The children are starving, the people are calling
   Am                           G
For something their eyes cannot see
Dm                      C
I try to encourage them but they look at me
   Am                   G
And say how can I believe?
Dm                             C
In someone that loves them but won't even show them
   Am                       G
His face when they've asked Him to
Dm                           C
Where is this Savior and who is the maker
  Am                    G
Who came and delivered you…


[Chorus]
   F       C
My God, my God
    G                 F
Why have You forsaken me?

Why have You forsaken me?
           C
My God, my God
        G             F
Why have You forsaken me?

Why have You forsaken me?


[Verse 2]
             C             G               F   C
I just wanna fix everything that's wrong
                    G         F
But what more am I doing but writing a song?
     Dm                          C
When babies have babies, they're babies
                        Am                       G
They're craving for something they think is true love
             Dm             C
Maybe 'cause daddy he wasn't a daddy
           Am                  G
'Cause his daddy left him alone
       Dm                    C                     Am
And people who hold so much power keep holding to power
                  G
They sit on their thrones
      Dm                 C
A cycle of strategy crafting a battle
         Am      G
That You already won


[Chorus]
   F       C
My God, my God
    G             F
Why have You forsaken me?

Why have You forsaken me?
           C
My God, my God
    G             F
Why have You forsaken me?

Why have You forsaken me?


[Bridge]

Wars aren't ending

Poverty's building
G
Sickness rising

Secrets hiding
C
Why won't You
G             Am
Do what You can do?
F
People are livid

They don't wanna live in
G
This world that You've called us

To be in and not of
F
I don't understand it

Is that what You call love
G
I know You sent Your son

To die for us all but
C
Feels like we're hitting
G                      Am
Wall after wall, after wall
F
So take all this courage

I'm using to cry out
G
And turn it around for

Your glory to shine out
C
Your name in the earth
G                          Am
No matter how long it will take
F
And take all this passion

I'm using to bash and
G
Take all these fads that

Are destined to crash
C
I know it seems dark
   G                   Am
But I still believe in Hope
C
I know it seems dark
    G                Am      F C G
But I still believe in Hope, mm-mm


[Chorus]
   F       C
My God, my God
F            C
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
   F       C
My God, my God
    G          F
You will never leave me
                C             F
You will never, You will never
           C
My God, my God
    G          F
You will never leave me

You will never leave me
          C
Never, my love
     G          F
Even when I can't see

You're working on something…
G                Am
You're working on me
