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

THE END!
