I Am A Temple by John Mark McMillan
I Am A Temple
Capo:no capo
C
Deep inside me
G
There's this burning
Am F
That just won't let me go
You are my fire
You are my righteousness
You are my rock in roll
I wish I could fit you
Down inside my chest God
I wish I could swallow you whole
I'd wrap you up
In a blanket of my skin
And you could call my body home
C
I Am A temple
G
I Am A temple
F
My body is a temple
G F
I am a temple, I... (repeat)
G C
So what if I'm not worthy
Am
So what if I'm not worthy
G
So what if I'm not worthy
Am G
You have made me clean
C G
I can't get over how quickly you recover
Am F
The pieces of my heart as they shatter
C
Cause in your hands I am
G
More than just a brand new man
Am
And all my falling down now
F
Well, Its just don't matter
