Verse 1:
C5                     G5
Brick by brick with stilts and sticks
     A5                C5
you build your empire walls
A5                   G5
Trick by trick you punch and kick
A5               C5
untl the other falls

     C5                G5
You primp and press expensive dress 
       A5               C5 
as if God Himself would be impressed
       A5            G5   C5
that you look your very best


Chorus:
C5        G5        A5             C5
So raise up your kingdoms and thrones
          A5             G5     C5
turn the broken and the weak away
C5     G5          A5        C5
God is not in a temple of stone
            A5              G5            C5
He is the outcast of these walls you've made


Verse 2:
C5               G5
Lip to lip you lie and quip
     A5                 C5
to bring your brother down
     A5                 G5
you tear and strip and crack your whip
A5               C5
to twist a thorny crown

     C5                 G5
Too proud to share or ever carry
       A5               C5 
burdens you refuse to bear
            A5    G5        C5
While you stand afar and stare


Chorus:
C5        G5        A5          C5
So raise up your kingdoms and walls
          A5             G5     C5
turn the broken and the weak away
C5     G5          A5        C5
God is not in a temple of stone
            A5              G5            C5
He is the outcast of these walls you've made


Bridge:
    A5                C5
So you will be like Jericho
G5                    C5  
I will sing with a mighty roar
           A5     G5    C5
'Till the walls come down


Final Chorus:
C5     G5    A5          C5
There is a kingdom that loves
          A5               G5     C5
Where the weak are never turned away
C5     G5          A5        C5
God is not in a temple of stone
               A5              G5        C5
He is with the people who cry out His name!
