[Verse 1]
F7M
I  saw my name written in,
       Dm9
Deep within the well as I drank from it.
     F7M
(And dug within your palms) as You offered this,
               Dm9
I felt You gaze   at me.
         Cadd11
But with quickened step,
                          Dm9
My feet spoke faster than the sentence
That clawed at my heels
          Cadd11
More than sentiment;
I knew that You looked at me
    Dm9
But not that intently.
You sang,

[Chorus]
Bbsus2
"Listen, listen!
                        C
Can't you hear creation groaning?
                       Bbsus2
The heels of lions are moaning for movement
                               C
And everything is shaking that could be shaken.
               Bbsus2
And I only ask,      o God! do I plead
                C
That you would abide and remain in me
Oh, 'cause I,
Bbsus2                         C
      I'm jealous for your safety."

[Verse 2]
           F7M
"When I saw   you,
                                C
it was like walking through the street
                            Dm9
Just crowds of endless grief
                                     Bbsus2
Through the walls past which I could see   
            C               F7M
Through the windows obsolete
                                   C
'Cause I saw every tear, every sigh
                      Dm9
Every wasted minute by
                                Bbsus2
Every inch of my father's design
      C
Every second of life denied."

[Bridge]
         Bbsus2
"and oh, child, if I could,
I'd throw myself before your tracks
         Dm9
But I've already done that,
     F       C
I've already done that.
        Bbsus2
So that maybe you would stop,
o God! would you see...
        Dm9                       F
But now my blood is drying on the soles of your feet.
 C
"
         F
"So come back, come back, retreat,
come back..."

[Chorus]
Bbsus2                        C
      Can't you hear creation groaning?
                       Bbsus2
The heels of lions are moaning for movement
                               C
And everything is shaking that could be shaken.
               Bbsus2
And I only ask,      o God! do I plead
                C
That you would abide and remain in me
Oh, 'cause I,
Bbsus2                         C
      I'm jealous for your safety."
