  G             Am            D
    Kind word , lookin' for a kind word in a
  G            Am      D
    Dark world under a mean spell
  G                        Am
    The golden rule is you get what you give

    So I'll wish you well, Make sure you have heard

G
I know it isn't much
               Am                  D
But a blade of grass can crack the pavement
    G
And if enough of us
      Am             D
Would go against the grain
   G
In time we'd be a green field
           D#dim            Em
Dressed in God's own finest raiment
G
Soakin' up the sunshine
    Am               D
And laughing in the rain

  G             Am            D
    Kind word , lookin' for a kind word in a
  G            Am      D

    A kind word, Kind word

  G
I see the cardboard boxes,
            Am            D
The fragile houses of the lost
  G
I see the endless line of crosses
          Am                D
Carved by hands of hate and war
  G
I see the broken children
         D#dim              Em
Fists of blinding rage have tossed us
       G
Can we start with just
                           Am                    D
This little thing that may lead to something more?

     Em                             Bm
They say a single prayer can move a mountain
      C                                G
And I know a little faith can turn the tide
    Bm
The need to love and to be loved
    A5
Can soon become a fountain
     Am                             D
That forms a river flowin' deep and wide

     G
What will it take to free us
             Am                  D
From distant hearts and downcast eyes
   G
To see the face of Jesus
     Am              D
In a stranger on the street?
         G
Who will water seeds of Holiness
   D#dim            Em
In someone we've despised
     G
Will heaven tell ours were the words
     Am                       D
That washed His hands and feet?

  G             Am            D

       G             Am         G             D
    So I'll wish you well, Make sure you have heard

    A kind word, Kind word
