Verse 1
(G major) Can I see another's woe,
and not (C major) be in sorrow too?
(G major) Can I see another's grief,
(C major) and not seek for kind relief?
(G major) Can I see a falling tear
and (C major) not feel my sorrow share? (G major)
Can a father see his child (C major) weep,
nor be with sorrow (G major) filled?
Can a mother sit and hear an in (C major) fant groan,
an infant fear?
(G major) No, no, never can (C major) it (G major) be
Never, (C major) never can it (G major) be
And can he who smiles on all
Hear (C major) the rend with sorrows (G major) small
Hear the small birds' grief and care
Hear (C major) the woes (G major) that infants bear
And knots it beside the nest,
pour (C major) ing pity in their (G major) breast.
And knots it the cradle near,
(C major) weeping tear on (G major) infant dear.
And knots it both night and day,
(C major) wiping all our tears away.
(G major) Oh, no, nev (C major) er can it (G major) be,
never, (C major) never can (G major) it be.
He doth give his joy to all.
He (C major) be comes an infant (G major) small.
He becomes a man of woe.
Think (C major) doth heal the (G major) sorrow too.
Think not thou canst sigh a sigh,
And (C major) thy Maker is (G major) not by.
Think not thou canst weep a tear,
(C major) And thy Maker is not (G major) near.
Oh, He gives to us His joy,
(C major) That our grief He may destroy.
(G major) Till our grief is glad and gone,
He doth sit by (C major) us at home.
He does it by us and more
(G major) He does it by us and (C major) more
He does it by us and (G major) for
He (A flat major) (G major) does it by us (C major) and for
