Ami
1. I've wept for those who suffer long
But how I weep for those who've gone
Into rooms of grief and questioned wrong
Dsus4
But keep on killing
2. It's in the soul to feel such things
But weak to watch without speaking
Oh what mercy sadness brings
If God be willing

C/H Ami Ami/H C
To heaven's gate, to heaven's gate
C/H C
And on the way, child and man
C/H Ami Ami/H D
And woman wait, watch and wait
Ami
For redemption day
3. The fire rages in the streets
And swallows everything it meets
It's just an image often seen
On television
4. Come leaders, come you men of great
Let us hear you pontificate
Your many virtues laid to waste
And we aren't listening

Was there no oil to excavate
No riches in trade for the fate
Of every person who died in ate

Throw us a bone, you men of great
