    • Verse 1
    In 
    the 

    time 
    of 
    my 
    confession, 

    in 
    the 
    hour 
    of my 
    deepest 
    need 

    In 
    the pool 
    of tears 
    beneath 
    my 
    feet 

    Flood 
    every 
    newborn 
    sea 

    There's 
    a 
    dy
    ing 
    voice 
    within 
    me 

    Reach
    ing 
    out 
    somewhere 

    Toil
    ing 
    in 
    the danger

    and 
    the 
    morals 
    of 
    despair 

    I 
    don't 
    have 
    the 
    inclination 

    to 
    look 
    back 
    on 
    any 
    mis
    take 

    Like 
    canine 
    now, 

    the 
    chain 
    of 
    event
    s 
    that 
    I 
    must 
    break 

    And 
    in 
    the 
    fury 
    of 
    the mo
    ment, 

    I 
    can see 
    the 
    Master's 
    hand 

    In 
    every 
    leaf 
    it trembles, 

    and 
    in 
    every 
    grain 
    of 
    sand. 

    Oh, 
    the 
    flowers 
    of 
    indul
    gence, 

    and 
    the weeds 
    of 
    yesteryear, 

    Like 
    crim
    inals 
    they 
    have choked 

    the 
    breath 
    of 
    conscience 

    and 
    good 
    cheer 

    And 
    the sun 
    beat 
    down 

    upon 
    the 
    steps 
    of 
    time 
    to 
    light 
    the 
    way 

    To 
    ease 
    the pain 
    of 
    idle
    ness 

    and 
    the 
    memory 
    of 
    decay 

    As 
    I 
    gaze 
    into 
    the 
    doorway 

    of 
    tempta
    tion's 
    angry 
    flame 

    And 
    every 
    time 
    I 
    pass 
    that way, 

    oh 
    I 
    always 
    hear 
    my 
    name 

    But 
    then 
    on
    ward 
    on 
    my 
    jour
    ney, 

    I 
    have 
    come 
    to 
    understand 

    An
    d 
    that 
    every 
    hair 
    is 
    numbered, 

    just 
    like 
    every 
    grain 
    of 

    sand. 

    Cause 
    I 
    have 
    gone 
    from 
    rags 
    to 
    riches, 

    in 
    the sor
    row 
    of 
    the 
    night. 

    An
    d 
    the vi
    olence 
    of 

    a summer
    's 
    dream 

    And 
    the 
    chill 
    of 
    wintry 
    light 

    And 
    the bit
    ter 
    dance 
    of 
    loneli
    ness 

    Fad
    ing 
    into 
    space 

    An
    d 
    the broken 
    mirror 
    of 
    in
    nocence 

    In 
    each 
    forgotten 
    face 

    I 
    hear 
    the ancient 
    footsteps 

    Like 
    the 
    motion 
    of 
    the 
    sea 

    Sometimes 
    I 
    turn 

    and 
    there's 
    someone 
    there 

    Other 
    times 
    it's 
    only 
    me 

    Cause 
    I 
    am 
    hanging 
    in 
    the bal
    ance 

    Of 
    a per
    fect 
    finished 
    plan 

    Like 
    every 
    sparrow 
    fallen 

    And 
    like 
    every 
    grain 
    of 
    sand 

    Every 
    grain 
    of 
    sand

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
