Capo 1
[Verse 1]
C
There is a song for my family
Outside the walls of Sunday
G F C
Morning from some within.
This is a song to confess our sins,
G F
Lay it all out, and try to begin again.
C
To hope again.
[Chorus]
G Am7 F
Please forgive our ignorance
G
In looking down on you
Am7 F
Please forgive our selfishness
G
For hiding in our pews while the world bleeds
G F
While the world needs us to be what we should be
[Verse 2]
C
This is a song for my family who
G F
Just can’t believe in the Jesus that you’ve seen
C
On Sunday morning.
C
This is a song for the cynical saints.
The burned out and hopeless.
G F
The ones that we’ve cast away.
C
I feel your pain.
[Chorus 2]
G Am7 F G
Please forgive our wastefulness of all that we could be
Am7 F
But don’t forget, there’s more than this
G
Her beauty still exists
F
His bride is still alive
G
His bride is still alive
F
His bride is still alive
G
His bride is still alive
F G
His bride is still alive
[Ending]
C
This is a song for my family inside
G F
The walls of Sunday morning.
C
Be what you should be.
