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