C C                    Am Am                                F F
it is so that my transgressions have born a withered fruit,
G G
the sun has scorched the rising plants;
C C Am Am
alas they have no root, the bleached bones of animals bound by leather
F F
strips,
G G C C
dance through the air with laughter as I wield this wicked whip,

Am Am F F
as you did warn me carpenter, this world has weakened my heart,

G G C C
so easily I disparage, self-seeking the work of my art,

Am Am F F
and there you have come to me at the moment I bathe in my sorrow,

G G C C
so in love with myself, sought after avoiding tomorrow,
Am Am F F
where do you find the love to offer he who betrays you?

G G C C
and offer to wash my feet as I offer to disobey you,

Am Am F F
your beauty does bereave me, and how my words do fail,
G G C C
so faithfully and dutifully I award you with betrayal,


Am Am F F C C
the weak and the down trodden fall on broken legs,
G G Am Am
as I walk past a smile I cast, fervor in my stead,
F F C C
but my bones like plastic, do buckle backward now,

G G C C
I lay in this field by Judas' bowels and anticipate the plow,
F F Am Am
I can not be forgiven; my wages will be paid,

G G C C
for those more lovely and admirable is least among the saved,
F F
and where would I fit Jesus?
Am Am
what place is left for me?
G G C C
the price of atonement is more than I've found to offer up as my plea,

C C Am Am F F G G
Jesus my heart is all I have to give to you, so weak and so unworthy,

C C Am Am F F
this simply will not do, no alabaster jar, no diamond in the rough,

G G C C
for your body that was broken, how can this be enough?

Am Am F F
by me you were abandoned, by me you were betrayed,

G G C C
yet in your arms and in your heart forever I have stayed

C C Am Am F F
Your glory illuminates my life, and no darkness will descend,

G G C C
for you have loved me forever, and your love will never end
