Intro

G  D  A


Verse 1

G                     D
When did it become breaking a rule
A                              Bm
To say Your name out loud in school
G                          D                A
When Your name’s the only one that sets us free
G                      D
When did it become incorrect
A                         Bm
To speak the truth about life and death
G                       D          A
When Your life gave us all eternity


Pre-Chorus

        Bm             
Even if it gets me convicted
        A
I’ll be on my knees with my hands lifted


Chorus

                    G                D
If serving You’s against the law of man
                   A               Bm
If living out my faith in You is banned
G                 D               A
Then I’ll stand right before the jury
               G               D
If saying I believe is out of line
                           A            Bm
If I’m judged ‘cause I’m gonna give my life
G             D                   A
To show the world the love that fills me
                  G    D  A
Then I wanna be guilty


Verse 2

G                  D
I’ll rise up and honor You
A                            Bm
I’ll testify to the good You do
              G                           D     A
‘Cause Your Grace and Your Mercy have overtaken me


Pre-Chorus

        Bm             
Even if it gets me convicted
        A
I’ll be on my knees with my hands lifted


Chorus

                    G                D
If serving You’s against the law of man
                   A               Bm
If living out my faith in You is banned
G                 D               A
Then I’ll stand right before the jury
               G               D
If saying I believe is out of line
                           A            Bm
If I’m judged ‘cause I’m gonna give my life
G             D                   A
To show the world the love that fills me


Bridge

                  G           D
Then I wanna be guilty by association
A                  Bm
Guilty of being a voice proclaiming 
G                 D
Your ways, Your truth, Your life
      A
I’ll pay the price to be Your light


Chorus

                    G                D
If serving You’s against the law of man
                   A               Bm
If living out my faith in You is banned
G                 D               A
Then I’ll stand right before the jury
               G               D
If saying I believe is out of line
                          F#m            Bm
If I’m judged ‘cause I’m gonna give my life
G             D                   A
To show the world the love that fills me 


Bridge

                  G           D

G                 D
Your ways, Your truth, Your life
A                               G   D  A
I’ll pay the price to be Your light
