Intro: C#mAEG#mVerse 1:
C#m
They tried to keep you in a tent
AE
They could not keep you in a temple
G#mC#m
Or any of their idols, to see and understand
C#m
We cannot keep you in a church
AE
We cannot keep you in a Bible
G#mC#m
Or it's just another idol to box you in
C#m
They could not keep you in their walls
AE
We cannot keep you in ours either
G#m
For you are so much greater
Chorus:
ABE
Who is like the Lord
A
The maker of the heavens
BE
Who dwells with the poor
A
He lifts them from the ashes
G#C#m
And He seats them among princes
BABE
Who is like the Lord
Verse 2:
C#m
We've tried to keep you in our tents
AE
We've tried to keep you in our temples
G#m
We've worshiped all our idols
C#m
We want all that to end
C#m
So we will find you in the streets
AE
And we will find you in the prisons
G#m
And even in our Bibles and churches
