And he thought of those he frightened
[Am]For he was not a evil man,[C]

[Verse 7]
And [Em]he understood.
He understood him[G]self.
[C]Upon this
He saw [Em]that when he was [Am]of anger
Or knew hurt
Or felt fear,
It was because he was
[G]not under[D]standing.
And [Bm]he learned, [Em]compassion.

[Bm]And with his eye of co[Em]mpassion
He saw his enemies
[Bm]Like unto [Em]himself,
And he [C]learned [Bm]love.
[Em]Then, he was answered.
