 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

   D
But when I think about what has

The power to change the world

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

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

      C            D
I can forgive because I've been forgiven
         Bm
And I can show mercy
              C
Because its mercy I've received
      C
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

Then let that be enough

And I wanna stand and tell the story
       D
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

Oh, let my life be
   D/F#        G   D
A reflection of Your kindness
