If We Are The Body

(Capo 2)

       (x4)    { are hammered on and off}

                       
It's crowded in worship today
                                   /
As she slips in           trying to fade into the faces
                                        
The girls teasing laughter is carrying 
                    
Farther than they know
                     /
Farther than they know, Lord


(Chorus)
       
But if we are the body
               /
Why aren't His arms     reaching?
                
Why aren't His hands healing?
                 
Why aren't His words teaching?
       
And if we are the body
               /
Why aren't His feet       going?
                         /             
Why is His love not showing them       there is a way?


           Em7 {4 measures}
There is a way.



                         
A traveler is far away from home
                           
He sheds his coat         
                       /
And quietly sinks into the back row
                                           
The weight of their judgmental glances
                                 
Tells him that his chances     
                        /
are better out on the road


(Chorus)

(Bridge)
/                             
Jesus            paid much too high    a price
                                     /
For us to pick and choose who should come
                        
And we are the bo - - -dy of     Christ


(Chorus) x2

             Em7 {3 measures}
Jesus is the way
