Verse 1:
Lord Your l[C]ove builds bridges that cannot be burned
[G]It speaks truth that ca[Am]nnot be learned
[F]It's a treasure we can n[Am]ever e[G]arn
Oh,[F] it goes places we're afraid [Am]of going
[G]It's not a fist it's a hand w[Am]ide open
[F]Reaching out to the down [Am]and broken[G]
Chorus 1:
We bel[C]ieve Your love
Is the stro[F]ngest w[C]ay
You're tea[G]ring down[Am] walls
And You br[F]eak our[C] chains
Even [C]in this darkness
Hope will r[F]ise ag[C]ain
When we[G] lay down [Am]our weapons
We will l[F]et love[C] win
Lord, we[G] lay down [Am]our weapons
And we l[F]et love w[C]in
Repeat Intro
Verse 2:
Lord Your l[F]ove is a friend to its en[Am]emies
[G]It takes a hit then turns [Am]a cheek
[F]You laid down Your life [Am]for peace[G]
Oh, l[F]ove won't cast a singl[Am]e stone
[G]It's never proven by words[Am] alone
[F]You come alive in our flesh [Am]and bo[G]nes
[G]And in our souls
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
[F]What if fighting for [Am]our beliefs
Looks more like surr[C]endering
Though that's the har[G]dest thing
[F]What if standing up [Am]for what's right
Means laying d[C]own our pride
Even laying d[Em]own our l[F]ives
Chorus 2:
We bel[C]ieve Your love
Is the stro[F]ngest w[C]ay
You're tea[G]ring down[Am] walls
And You br[F]eak our[C] chains
Even [C]in this darkness
Hope will r[F]ise ag[C]ain
When we[G] lay down [Am]our weapons
We will l[F]et love[C] win
