Thoughts
Lyrics and Chords
Thoughts (When I’m Alone) From the album, ‘Stir into Flame’
That’s exactly what this song is about:- thoughts. . . thoughts about social injustice, and all those less fortunate than us,
and Christian faith. Chris.
Intro: Am . . . .
Am Dm
When I’m alone, and my thoughts are milling round,
G E7 Am
I think of Him, and the love my friends have found.
Dm
I think of peace, and of wars that never end,
G E7 Am
and of the suffering, and the pain, I long to end.
Chorus:
F
How will I know, when He’s right here beside me,
G E7 Am
and His love is shining out and pouring through my soul?
F G
How will I feel, when I can look into the faces of my loved ones,
E7 Am
and knowingly say - that He is real?
I think of prisons, the lonely faces that look out,
into a world full of hatred, greed and doubt.
I see the children, and their starving eyes that gaze
back into mine, where they mirror - only pain.
Chorus
Vocalist: Margaret Scott
