Common Hymnal


Tom: G#m

 G#m    B/D# E
God is not abusive

Takes no pleasure in our shame

Hallelujah


[Chorus]
G#m           D# E

Come now , everybody
G#m       D#     E

Lay down every stone
G#m           D#    E

He will not condemn you

There's freedom at His throne


[Verse 2]
G#m                  B/D# E

When hurt grows me to silence
G#m     F#/A#  B  B/D#   E  F#

Bearing guilt from other's sins
B     F#/A#   G#m   C#     B/D# E

Lord, lift my voice to cry out
G#m    F#/A#       B   B/D#  E

Spirit catch the tears that fall


[Verse 3]
G#m           B/D# E
Jesus sees my trauma
 G#m F#/A#  B B/D#   E  F#
And holds my broken pieces
  E   G#m  B/D# F# C#m D#m E
And draws me to His kindness
G#m F#/B B B D# E
Hallelujah


[Chorus]

G#m           D# E

Come now , everybody

Lay down every stone

He will not condemn you
          C#m      B/D# E

There's freedom at His throne


[Bridge] x 2
    C#m
So come,
            E
do not be afraid
       G#                       F#

These burdens no longer need to keep you silent
     C#m
Oh, come,
           E
do not be afraid
        G#
There's refuge from all
               F#
the hurts and pains that haunt you

He finds a place inside our pain
G#m F#/B B B D# E
