Chords

[Verse 1]
      G                       Am7
We've built our stained-glass castles

Em              C
Reaching to the sky

       G                 Am7
At our best to show Your glory

       Em                C
At our worst to show our pride

      G                   Am7
We've raised our hands in worship

        Em                C
And our fist to stake our claim

           G                Am7
We've done so much good and so much harm

Em                C
All in Your great name
[Pre-chorus]
    D
But when I think about what has

    C
The power to change the world

         D
It could all be said with just one word

C        D
Kindness
[Chorus]
           G
What if we lived with a heart of kindness

           D
What if we loved like we've been loved

          Em               D
If that's all that we're remembered for

          C
Well, let that be enough

              Bm
So, when they stand and tell the stories

          D
Of who we are and what we've done

     Em                   D
Of a thousand things that we could leave behind us

            Em
If they say just one word

          D/F#         G
Well, let that word be kindness
[Verse 2]
        G                  Am7
Let our hearts be quick to listen

        Em              C
And our lips be slow to speak

       G                 Am7
Let us wrap ourselves in mercy

                Em    C
compassion, and humility

      G                       Am7
We're reaching past the lines

                Em               C
That words like us and them have drawn

G                  Am7           Em              C
Knowing we'll find common ground together at the cross
[Chorus]
           G
What if we lived with a heart of kindness

           D
What if we loved like we've been loved

          Em               D
If that's all that we're remembered for

          C
Well, let that be enough

              Bm
So, when they stand and tell the stories

          D
Of who we are and what we've done

     Em                   D
Of a thousand things that we could leave behind us

            Em
If they say just one word

          D/F#         G
Well, let that word be kindness

Kindness
[Bridge]
      C                            D
I can forgive because I've been forgiven

               Bm
And I can show mercy

                         C
Because its mercy I've received

         C
It's the kindness of my Father

     D
That brought me back to life

             Bm                            C
And it's His kindness that still brings me to my knees
[Chorus]
        G
I wanna live with a heart of kindness

        D
I wanna love like I've been loved

          Em               D
If that's all that we're remembered for

     C
Then let that be enough

            Bm
And I wanna stand and tell the story

           D
Of who You are and what You've done

         Em                 D
How Your amazing love would bring You here to find us

   Em           D               C
To rescue and redeem us in Your kindness

           Em
Oh, let my life be

    D/F#             G          D
A reflection of Your kindness
[Ending]
                             Em       D        C
We can change the world with kindness
Your kindness
                             G          D
We can change the world with kindness
Kindness
                             Em         D
We can change the world with kindness
You kindness
