Our hearts are breaking for Charleston

...so many lives, in a moment shattered

Verse 2:
C                   Gsus4

F
...Cause they believed in a Kingdom coming
C                              Gsus4 
and while they are grieving in Charleston 
F
...We won't forget the love that they were showing

Cause that love will not be silenced
