I like to use different chord voicing for the verse, chorus and bridge because it is a three chord song.
It creates variety. It also helps to have different chord voicings when you have two guitarist playing.

[Intro]

[Main Riff] x2


[Verse 1]

[Main Riff] x4 (Em)

Lift your head weary sinner, the river's just ahead

Down the path of forgiveness, salvation's waiting there

You built a mighty fortress 10,000 burdens high

Love is here to lift you up, here to lift you high


[Chorus]

Em
If you're lost and wandering
Em
Come stumbling in like a prodigal child
        C
See the walls start crumbling
        D
Let the gates of glory open wide

[Riff 2]


[Verse 2]

Em
All who've strayed and walked away, unspeakable things you've done

Fix your eyes on the mountain, let the past be dead and gone

Come all saints and sinners, you can't outrun God
C                                       D
Whatever you've done can't overcome the power of the blood


[Chorus]

Em
If you're lost and wandering
Em
Come stumbling in like a prodigal child
        C
See the walls start crumbling
        D
Let the gates of glory open wide
Em
If you're lost and wrecked again
Em
Come stumbling in like a prodigal child
        C
See the walls start crumbling
        D
Let the gates of glory open wide


[Bridge]

[Riff 3] |C D |Em Em|


[Chorus]

Em
If you're lost and wandering
Em
Come stumbling in like a prodigal child
        C
See the walls start crumbling
        D
Let the gates of glory open wide
Em
If you're lost and wrecked again
Em
Come stumbling in like a prodigal child
        C
See the walls start crumbling
        D                       Em
Let the gates of glory open wide
                              C
Let the gates of glory open wide
        D
Let the gates of glory open wide
