Verse 1
could you hear the prayers I offer You today?
G
Some of the people in the parish have been
asking me to pray for them
Am
They have no strength to help themselves,
they need help fending for themselves
F
And we do all we can do,
but there's so little that we can do
Verse 2
C
And this is the worst winter I know of,
even worse than last
G
The snow has stayed for too long on the ground,
and for the second year around now
Am
All across our little island,
we give all our sweat and toil
they have all rotted in the soil
Verse 3
G
And all along the western seaboard,
they await with open hands
F
For something to feed their children
or a ship to foreign lands
G
But there's nothing here to give them,
except for chicken feed and sand
Am
While Britannia rules the roost
Verse 4
Dm
Lord, what can we do now? Oh, good Lord,
what can we do
D
G
When we need to feed so many,
and there's not even for the few?
Dm
Lord, what can we do now? Lord,
what can we do?
D
G
They are starving, they are freezing
And their clothes have all worn
Am

Verse 5
Your people need You more than ever now
G
It's such a desperate situation that
the nation's in somehow
Am
I can't see many pulling through,
'cause even if we had the food to feed them
F
Many have disease, Lord,
I hope You hear our pleas
Verse 6
C
They are scattered by the roadside,
in the towns and in the fields
G
And there's not even food to work for,
never mind beg, lend or steal
Am
And if we go by the predictions,
with starvation and eviction
F
Some two million will be dead
before we're through
Verse 7
G
Still, all along the western seaboard,
they all wait with open hands
F
For something to feed their children or
a ship to foreign lands
G
But there's nothing here to give them,
except for chicken feed and sand
Am
While Britannia rules the roost
Verse 8
Dm
Lord, what can we do now? Oh, good Lord,

They have no one now but You
