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