C                                  F               C 
I went to church this morning  and heard you say a prayer 

    F           C            D7             G7 
You didn't even notice  that I was standing there 

  C                              F              C 
I heard you whisper softly  dear God in heaven above 

F                     C            D7      G7     C 
Forgive me please for hurting  the one you know I love 



   F       C       G7         C 
If God can forgive you so can I  

F                C           D7  G7 
You were not the only one to cry 

C                          F 
When you went away dear  I thought that I would die 

           C            G7     C 
If God can forgive you  so can I 



C                             F                C 
And when the prayer was over  I sat there quietly 

    F                C        D7                G7 
The teardrops slowly falling  I knew then suddenly 

    C                    F             C 
You had been forgiven  I felt it in my heart 

F                   C             D7     G7    C 
What God has joined together  let no man tear apart 



   F       C       G7         C 
If God can forgive you so can I  

F                C           D7  G7 
You were not the only one to cry 

C                          F 
When you went away dear  I thought that I would die 

           C            G7     C 
If God can forgive you  so can I
