    Verse 1
    It's 

    enough 
    to drive 
    a man 
    crazy 

    Or 
    break 
    a man's 
    faith 

    It's enough 
    to make 
    him 
    wonder

    If he's 
    ever 
    been 
    sane 

    When he's 
    bleed
    ing 
    for comfort 

    From 
    thy staff 
    and 
    thy 
    rod 

    And the 
    heavens' only 
    answer 

    Is the 
    silence 
    of 
    God 

    Verse 2

    And it'll 
    shake 
    a man's 
    timbers 

    When he 
    loses 
    his 
    heart 

    When he 
    has 
    to 
    remem
    ber 

    What 
    broke 
    him 
    apart 

    And this 
    yoke 
    may 
    be 
    easy 

    But this 
    burden 
    is not 

    When the 
    crying 
    fields 
    are 
    frozen 

    By the 
    si
    lence 
    of 
    God 

    And 
    if 
    a 
    Verse 3
    man 
    has 
    got 
    to listen 

    To 
    the voices 
    of 
    the mob 

    Who are 
    reeling 
    in the throes 

    Of all 
    the 
    happiness 
    they've 
    got 

    When they 
    tell 
    you 
    all 

    their troubles 

    Have been 
    nailed 
    up 
    to that 
    cross 

    What about 
    the 
    times 
    when 
    even 

    followers 
    get lost? 

    Cause we 
    all 
    get lost 
    sometimes 

    Verse 4
    There's a 
    statue 
    of 
    Jesus 

    On a 
    monastery 
    knoll 

    In 
    the hills 
    of 
    Kentuck
    y 

    All 
    quiet 
    and cold 

    He's 
    kneeling 
    in 
    the garden 

    As 
    silent 
    as a 
    stone 

    All 
    his 
    friends 
    are sleep
    ing 

    And He's 
    weeping 
    all 
    alone 

    And the 
    man 
    of 
    all sor
    rows 

    He 
    never 
    forgot 

    What sorrow 
    is 
    carried 

    By the 
    hearts 
    that he 
    bought 

    So 
    when the 
    questions 
    dis
    solve 

    Into the 
    silence 
    of 
    God 

    The 
    aching 
    may 
    re
    main 

    But the 
    breaking 
    does 
    not 

    Verse 5
    The aching 
    may 
    re
    main 

    But the 
    breaking 
    does 
    not 

    In the 
    holy, 
    lonesome 
    echo 

    Of the 
    si
    lence 
    of 
    God

      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

      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.
