Verse
F#
You throw out your whitewash
B F#
and I’ll throw out my pride
let’s open and expose all
B F#
that the devil says to hide
D#m
and let’s shave off these callouses
B C#
from the things we’ve tried
D#m
and release all the secrets
B F#
we’re taught to keep inside
[Chorus]
D#m B F#
Cause He is worthy of a flawless bride
G#m B F#
but He says we are His delight
D#m C#
He is worthy of a flawless bride
B F#
so we should probably try
[Verse 2]
F#
You throw out your whitewash
B F#
and I’ll shut my judging eyes
let our thanks and our praises
B F#
now replace our battle cries
and let’s stop this unrighteous hatred
B F#
that fueled by lies
and let’s love all the people
B F#
religion has despised
[Chorus]
D#m B F#
Cause He is worthy of a flawless bride
G#m B F#
but He says we are His delight
D#m C#
He is worthy of a flawless bride
B G#m
so we should probably try...
[Bridge]
D#m
a little harder than attending Sunday service
F#
take the gospel to the streets
C#
and let our living be our worship
G#m
and instead of pointing fingers
D#m
we should find the faults within us
F# C#
cause we’ve all got this blood on our hands
G#m
and I’m not singing to the world
D#m
I’d rather preach it too the choir
F#
cause we’re executing murderers
C#
and exalting lots of liars
G#m D#m
when in actuality we’re all deserving of hell-fire
F# C#
but saved by this blood on our hands
[Outro]
F# B F#
I’m urging you to hold on to the hope that we profess
B F#
cause the promiser is faithful and he keeps his promises
D#m B C#
So I promise you, oh, my friends there’ll be more than this
D#m B F#
but not because of our works but by His righteousness
