Bridge: 
G                     Bm 
Just a whisper in the dark  
                     D 
Spoken from a broken heart  
                       G 
Holding on to one last strand of faith  
G                            Bm 
Somewhere in the world right now  
                           D

Hoping Jesus really hears us when we pray

Since I was a little boy

But tonight I heard my son

playing this and God Bless! (P.S. I know that there are not any apostrophes. There  
is a glitch on the site that makes them #s.)
