A		      D
There is a hunger, a longing for bread
    E			       A	 E/G#
And so comes the call for the poor to be fed
     F#m7		 Bm7
More hungry by far are a billion and more
     D		   A	       E	   A
Who wait for the Bread of the Word of the Lord

Chorus:
A	 D     E	 F#m   D	A	D	 E
So many books, so little time, so many hunger, so many blind
A			       E	  F#m
Starving for words, they must wait in the night
   D	   A	     E		      A
To open a Bible and move towards the Light

VAMP

There'll come a time, the prophets would say
When the joy of mankind will be withered away
A want not for water, but a hunger for more
A famine for hearing the Word of the Lord

CHORUS
      D	     A	        E		 F#m
...To open a Bible and move towards the Light,
D	A	  E		   A
Open a Bible and move towards the Light

     D			 A/C#
The Word won't go out, except it return
F#m			E
Full, over flowing and so we must learn

  A   D	     E  F#m	D   A	   E     D

CHORUS
    D	  A	     E		     F#m
To open a Bible and move towards the Light
D	A	   E		   F#m
Open a Bible and move towards the Light
D	A	  E		   A
Open a Bible and move towards the Light
  A   D	     E  F#m	D   A	   E     D
[ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ]
