While We Sing

Verse 1
E                 G#m
I’ve sat by for too long
         C#m               A                 E
And I've watched the hurting suffer on their own
E            G#m
I have chances everyday
   C#m              A
To live like You, die to myself
E            B
Give Your love away
A   C#m  A           C#m B
And I wonder why I feel so empty inside...
Chorus
        C#m         A            E
While I sing la la la la la la la la la
       B             C#m
As the hungry roam the streets
C#m    A            E
La la la la la la la la la
       B                 C#m
As the broken are on their knees
C#m    A            E
La la la la la la la la la
       B
I keep singing
Verse 2
We are frozen, we are still
But we're called to be a city on a hill
And as our melodies resound
We cannot hear the silent cry
This world is screaming out
And we wonder why we feel so empty inside...
Bridge
A                  E
Remember salvation's day
G#m                 B  A
When Jesus washed our sins away
    A                       E   B
The lost are crying out to be saved
Chorus
Tag
A           E
Church arise, arise and shine
      G#m
Shake yourself from the dust
       C#m
God is calling us to go
