Intro: C F Am G x2 Verse: F Fear and pride are just two sides, friend Em Of Caesar’s tarnished penny Am Am/G Am/F# Quietness and rest belong to God F But who hasn’t studied warfare Em On the battlefield of life here Am Am/G Am/F# Perfecting self-defense just to survive? F You know how good it feels, love G To scratch the itch of anger C C/E F But complaining only chains us up in - side
Feels like safety and power
G
In a world so full of danger
C C/E F
It feels like danger to be grateful, small, and quiet
Chorus:
Am Am/G Am/F#
But oh
I see the Mighty Word of God
F E Am G
Go silent to the slaughter like a Lamb
Am Am/G Am/F#
Oh
I hear the voices of the crowd
F E Am G Bb F
Grow louder as the buried kernel’s roots de - scend
Transition:
C F
Am G
x2
Verse:
F
Cause the roots beneath the surface
Em
Search and listen for a music
Am Am/G Am/F#
That is and was and will be evermore
F
Like an acorn to an oak tree
Em
Who would ever think it could be
Am Am/G Am/F#
That those little lambs might ever rule the world
F
But the meek will spread their branches
G
Above the clamour of the nations
C C/E F
The sons of God will rest beneath their shade
And the politics of power
G
That seemed so strong until that hour
C C/E F
Will fall into the traps their power laid
Chorus:
Am Am/G Am/F#
But oh
I see the Mighty Word of God
F E Am G
Go silent to the slaughter like a Lamb
Am Am/G Am/F#
Oh
I hear the voices of the crowd

x2
Verse:
F
‘Cause nobody’s free from hardship
Em
And the briers in the garden
Am Am/G Am/F#
Can push their way so deeply down in - side
F
Till what started out so tender
Em
Is choked out by the winter
Am Am/G Am/F#
And gentleness don’t have a chance to flower
F
But don’t let your love grow cold, dear
G
or buy the lies they’ve sold here
C C/E F
For the fools of God will fiddle on the roof
All their lives they were the punchline
G
Now their laughing faces outshine
C C/E F
Every image Caesar thought would get him through
Chorus:
Am Am/G Am/F#
But oh
I see the Mighty Word of God
F E Am G
Go silent to the slaughter like a Lamb
Am Am/G Am/F#
Oh
I hear the voices of the crowd
F E Am G Bb F
Grow louder as the buried kernel’s roots de - scend
