I Refuse (ver 4) - Josh Wilson

[Intro]
D A G

D                           F#m
Sometimes I, I just want to close my eyes
                  G                    D
And act like everyone’s alright when I know they’re not
                 D                       F#m
This world needs God, but it’s easier to stand and watch
                         G                  D
I could say a prayer and just move on, like nothing’s wrong

Bm    A   G
But I re….fuse

[Chorus]
      D
Cause I don’t want to live like I don’t care
A
I don’t want to say another empty prayer
    G
Oh, I refuse to
D
Sit around and wait for someone else
A
To do what God has called me to do myself
G              Em     A
I could choose not to move, but I refuse

D A G

D                                            F#m
I can hear the least of these, crying out so desperately
                      G                 D
And I know we are the hands and feet of You, oh God
      D                                 F#m
So if You say move, it’s time for me to follow through
                  G                    D            A
And do what I was made to do, and show them who You are

[Chorus]

Bm A                   D                  G
To stand and watch the weary and lost cry out for help
Bm          A                D                G
I refuse to turn my back and try and act like all is well
Bm          A                  D                   G
I refuse to stay unchanged, to wait another day to die to myself
Em                A
I refuse to make one more excuse

[Chorus]

D A G D
