G5   G5 G5 G5 G5 (x4)    { G5 are hammered on and off}

       E5                C5
It's crowded in worship today
            A5   A5          C5          D5
As she slips in           trying to fade into the faces
    E5                       C5             
The girls teasing laughter is carrying 
                   A5 A5
Farther than they know
                  C5   D5
Farther than they know, Lord

(Chorus)
       G5
But if we are the body
               D5
Why aren't His arms     reaching?
                E5
Why aren't His hands healing?
               C5  
Why aren't His words teaching?
       G5
And if we are the body
               D5
Why aren't His feet       going?
            E5             D5             C5
Why is His love not showing them       there is a way?


           E5 {4 measures}
There is a way.


   E5                      C5
A traveler is far away from home
         A5   A5               
He sheds his coat         
             C5          D5
And quietly sinks into the back row
     E5                       C5               
The weight of their judgmental glances
                A5 A5                
Tells him that his chances     
                      C5  D5
are better out on the road

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
D5              E5      A5    C5     
Jesus            paid much too high    a price
                                     D5
For us to pick and choose who should come
               E5  A5       C5
And we are the bo - - -dy of     Christ

(Chorus) x2
             E5 {3 measures}
Jesus is the way
