Verse 1
       Em
Like a tree without its branches, 
       G
Like a fire without a light,
         C
You're a battle weary soldier 
       Am               D
Who is running from the fight,
C      Em
Like a ship without an anchor, 
         G
You're a boat without a crew,
    C
You hide the light inside you 
          Am              D
As you're whoring out the truth,
C      Em
On the outside you're pretty, 
       G
On the inside you're drenched,
       C
In the blood of the anointed,
       Am            D
In the wound of the oppressed,
C             Em                     G
Fill your cup full of sorrows as you soil the master's clothes,
         C                                      Am     D  C   Em
You were faithful at the wedding feast, but now wasted in the road,

Chorus
       Em                    C
Like a city on a hill with a blackout in effect
      G                       C          D
You defy your maker, is there one you respect?
       Em                     C
Like a city on a hill you are tattered and torn,
      G                     C D           Em
You defy your Maker in your return to the scorn,


Riff 2 x2


Verse 2
    Em
Put life to your footsteps,
    G
Put spine to your feet,
         C
Will you make your decision?
        Am               D
Are you chaff or are you wheat?
C        Em
Will you rise or will you fall, 
         G
Will you stand or will you crawl?
         C
Will you be the ones He's called you to be 
   Am            D
Or turn away and run,
  C   Em
I say NO!

Outro
       Em                       C
Like a city on the hill (like a city on the hill)
       G                 C       D     (Em)
Like a city on the hill (no more on the fence)

(Like a) city on the hill(like a city on the hill)

Like a city on the hill (no more on the fence)
