"I Refuse" - Josh Wilson

Standard Tuning

G5                           E5
Sometimes I, I just want to close my eyes
                     C5
And act like everyone's alright
       G5                  D5
When I know they're not
G5                                        E5
This world needs God, but it's easier to stand and watch
                          C5
I could pray a prayer and just move on
     G5                  D5
Like nothing's wrong

 
C5
But I Refuse


G5
I don't want to live like I don't care
D5
I don't want to say another empty prayer
C5               G5
Oh, I refuse to sit around and wait for someone else
D5
To do what God has called me to do myself
C5              D5
I could choose not to move
      G5
But I refuse

 
G5                              E5                            
I can hear the least of these, crying out so desperately
                      C5                    G5       D5
And I know we are the hands and feet of You, oh God
G5                                       E5
So if You say move, it's time for me to follow through
                  C5
And do what I was made to do
       G5               D5
And show them who You are

E5          D5                     G5                 C5
I refuse to stand and watch the weary and lost cry out for help
E5          D5                G5                C5
I refuse to turn my back and try and act like all is well
E5          D5                G5                C5
I refuse to stay unchanged, to wait another day to die to myself
E5                      D5
I refuse to make one more excuse
