 G  Am7    Em   C




🎸 Verse :
        G                       Am7
We've built our stained-glass castles
  Em              C
Reaching to the sky
         G                Am7
At our best to show Your glory
         Em                 C
At our worst to show our pride
         G                 Am7
We've raised our hands in worship
          Em                 C
And our fist to stake our claim
             G              Am7
We've done so much good and so much harm
 Em                  C
All in Your great name

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
      D
But when I think about what has
      C
The power to change the world
           D
It could all be said with just one word
  C      D
Kindness

🎸 Chorus:
              G
What if we lived with a heart of kindness
              D
What if we loved like we've been loved
           Em                D
If that's all that we're remembered for
            C
Well, let that be enough
                Bm
So, when they stand and tell the stories
            D
Of who we are and what we've done
        Em                 D                C
Of a thousand things that we could leave behind us
              Em
If they say just one word
           D/F#             G
Well, let that word be kindness




🎸 Verse :
           G                Am7
Let our hearts be quick to listen
          Em               C
And our lips be slow to speak
         G                Am7                     Em   C
Let us wrap ourselves in mercy, compassion, and humility
          G              Em
We're reaching past the lines
                 Em                 C
That words like us and them have drawn
   G                Am7             Em              C
Knowing we'll find common ground together at the cross

🎸 Chorus:
              G
What if we lived with a heart of kindness
              D
What if we loved like we've been loved
           Em                D
If that's all that we're remembered for
             C
Well, let that be enough
                Bm
So, when they stand and tell the stories
            D
Of who we are and what we've done
        Em                 D                C
Of a thousand things that we could leave behind us
              Em
If they say just one word

Well, let that word be kindness

                 Bm
And I can show mercy
                           C
Because its mercy I've received

It's the kindness of my Father
         D
That brought me back to life

And it's His kindness that still brings me to my knees

I wanna live with a heart of kindness

I wanna love like I've been loved

Of who You are and what You've done
            Em                 D                C
How Your amazing love would bring You here to find us
     Em           D               C
To rescue and redeem us in Your kindness

A reflection of Your kindness
