  			C                          F 
Deep in the heart of the infinite darkness 

  C                   D7               G7 
A tiny blue marble is spinning through space 

C                       F 
Born in the splendor of God's holy vision 

    C                   G7            C 
And sliding away like a tear down his face 

  
    F                        C 
The closer you see the whole wide holy wonder 

                            D7         G7 
Of oceans and mountains and rivers and trees 

        C                     F 
And the strangest creation of many the human 

  C                        G7          C 
A creature of laughter and Freedom and dreams 

                                   
                            F 
Now the warriors are waving their old rusty sabres 

C                           D7            G7 
And preachers are preaching the gospel of hate 

C                         F 
By their behavior they're determined to teach us 

  C                       G7            C 
A lesson we're soon to be learning too late 


     F                       C 
Look closer my brother we're killing each other 

                             D7        G7 
And we'd better stop and get started today 

        C                        F 
Because life is the question and life is the answer 

    C                     G7          C 
And God is the reason and love is the way 


                                 F 
Because life is the question and life is the answer 

    C                     G7          C 
And God is the reason and love is the way
