To Be A Christian by Jonathan Pierce
To Be A Christian
Capo:no capo
Chorus:
G
To be a Christian
G/B C
Is to bear another's load
G/B Am
To carry what they hold
D D7
When they can't walk another day
G
To be a Christian
G/B C
Is holding out a hand
G/B Am G
To help another stand
F D
When everyone has turned away
G C
To be a Christian
Verse 1:
G G/B
They sat there all alone
C C-G/B-Am
Their mother almost gone
Am
Their hope was passing
D D7
Passing with the time
Bm C
Should I turn and walk away
Am Am/G
Or hold their hand and simply say
Am
I may not know your name
G/B
But I can find
C D
In my heart to share your pain
Am G/B
And in my prayers to speak your name
C
You're not alone
[Chorus]
Verse 2:
G G/B
It isn't always understood
C C-G/B-Am
That through our worst God is good
Am
But when we act with love
D D7
It says so much more
Bm C
There is something said of grace
Am Am/G
When it's written on a face
Am G/B
That can touch a heart it's never touched before
C D
For to truly be like Christ
C
It's not a sacrifice

Is giving love away

But mercy falls so free

To those who will believe

Just take another look at me
