D
I hear the voice of one calling,
Dmaj7
I hear the voice of one calling,
GD
prepare ye, prepare ye the way of the Lord (2x)
G
And make His paths straight,
D
make His paths straight in the wilderness
GD
And let your light shine, let your light shine in the darkness
GD
And let your rain fall, let your rain fall in the desert.
D
I hear the voice of one calling,
Dmaj7
I hear the voice of one calling,
GD
prepare ye, prepare ye the way of the Lord.

Verse 1:
DGA
Sure as gold is precious and the honey sweet,
DGD
so You love this city and you love these streets.
GA
Ev'ry child out playing by its own front door,
DGD
ev'ry baby laying on the bedroom floor.
GA
Ev'ry dreamer dreaming in their dead-end job,
DGD
ev'ry driver driving through the rush-hour mob.

I feel it in my spirit, feel it in my bones,
DGD
You're gonna send revival, bring 'em all back home.
Chorus:

I can hear that thunder in the distance,

like a train on the edge of the town,

I can feel the brooding of Your Spirit,
GABmGAD
lay your burdens down, lay your burdens down.
Verse 2:
DGA
From the preacher preaching when the well is dry,
DGD
to the lost soul reaching for a higher high.

From the young man working through his hopes and fears
DGD
to the widow walking through the vale of tears.
GA
Ev'ry man and woman ev'ry old and young,
DGD
ev'ry father's daughter, ev'ry mother's son.

I feel it in my spirit, feel it in my bones,
DGD
You're gonna send revival, bring 'em all back home.

DGAD
I can hear that thunder in the distance,
