"I Refuse" - Josh Wilson
Transcribed: 02/20/2011 - Ernie Dipko
F# minorF#m
Sometimes I, I just want to close my eyes
G+G
And act like everyone's alright
D MajorD
When I know they're not
F# minorF#m
This world needs God, but it's easier to stand and watch
G+G
I could say a prayer and just move on
D MajorD
Like nothing's wrong
G+G
But I Refuse
D MajorD
I don't want to live like I don't care
A augmentedA
I don't want to say another empty prayer
D MajorD
Oh, I refuse to sit around and wait for someone else
A augmentedA
To do what God has called me to do myself
A augmentedA
I could choose not to move
D MajorD
But I refuse
F# minorF#m
I can hear the least of these, crying out so desperately
D MajorD
And I know we are the hands and feet of You, oh God
F# minorF#m
So if You say move, it's time for me to follow through
G+G
And do what I was made to do
A augmentedA
And show them who You are
D MajorD
I don't want to live like I don't care
A augmentedA
I don't want to say another empty prayer
D MajorD
Oh, I refuse to sit around and wait for someone else
A augmentedA
To do what God has called me to do myself
A augmentedA
I could choose not to move
G+G
I refuse to stand and watch the weary and lost cry out for help
G+G
I refuse to turn my back and try and act like all is well
G+G
I refuse to stay unchanged, to wait another day to die to myself
A augmentedA
I refuse to make one more excuse
D MajorD
I don't want to live like I don't care
A augmentedA
I don't want to say another empty prayer
D MajorD
Oh, I refuse to sit around and wait for someone else
A augmentedA
To do what God has called me to do myself
A augmentedA
I could choose not to move
D MajorD
