[Verse 1]

AFather we confess
F#mOh we confess
C#m                               Ewe have loved you less than ourselves

AFather we confess
F#mOh we confess
C#m                    EAll the idols we’ve built

DWe are betrayed by what we say
F#mBy what we do
             ABy what we claim
              EWe want to be famous


[Chorus]

A           Bm7             F#m     ETake us down and lay us low
A           Bm7             F#m     ELeave ashes in place of gold
A             Bm7Life-giver sustainer
F#m           E             Bm7   DLet nothing remain of our pride
                       Bm7    DFrom your mountain on high

Lay us low

AFather, we forget
F#mOh how we forget
C#m                         ETo forgive like you forgive us

AOh, how we pretend
F#mOh we pretend
C#m                     EWe are wise and we are just

DWe are betrayed by what we say
F#mBy what we do
            ABy what we claim
