All Creatures
by Josh Garrels
No Capo
Key: Em  
Chorus
EmAll cGreatures D2of our A2God and EmKing
Lift Gup your vD2oice and A2let us Emsing
O GPraise Him!   D2O PA2raise BmHim!
AlleluCia
(Same chord progression continues all the way thru... You'll just have to listen 
to the song for the full rhythm.)
EmCreation sent to me the Gcentipede to witness the
compD2lexity of one hundred A2legs that were moving
unexEmpectedly, ironically, Gjust as they were meant to be,
they're D2fearfully and wonderfully A2made;
An organism Empraised in circadian Grhythms:
the sun will D2rise and then the sun will A2set, and then the sun will rise 
aBmgain, so lift up your head! this is life: not a static Cobject preserved and 
disEmplayed like a relic from the Gdead
You are not a D2fruitless tree with a A2rootless disease
Emgrowin' in a bucket in a Grich man's home
D2next to the TV A2tamed and alone
Emlearnin' to lust for the Gthings you don't own
like an D2arm-chair warrior who's A2been dethroned,
Bmdeclawed and fixed, fighting for you life with unattended slit Cwrists.
EmDon't let your name get interGmingled with the number
cause its D2time to awaken from the A2devilish slumber,
to Emfreely follow the GForerunner
to the fatherD2land and rally round the A2renaissance man
and the Emwisdom of His ways and all the Gwork of His hands
catch D2come as catch can      A2  
concentrating on the Bmgood words of the Son of Man,
the plan is to withstand the demands of a Cconfused oppressor:
     Ema wolf in sheep's Gclothes
with monotonous D2lectures and questionable A2gestures
unequal Emmeasures  cultural Gpressures
and synthetic D2textures, force-fed inA2stead of the most beautiful
Emarchitecture   Gof our long D2lost, forgotten oriA2gins:
Unseen Bmfiber in the blood of my King
And that old rock where we confessed our Csins
EmOh, my God, Gfellow man
in D2this great land they A2all cry out for
full Emrestoration and Gthis will take patience
And D2this will take the tribes and the A2tongues of all the nations
and Emall of creation Ggroans in anticiD2pation
waitin' for the A2Son of God to be manifest
   BmI can feel it burnin' in my chest
liberation for the opCpressed
And it's Embeautiful like the Gfeet that bring good D2news...
Its beautiful A2like this freedom Emtune
Its beautiful Glike the power to D2choose... to A2change
EmBeautiful like the Glong awaited D2rain
Beautiful A2like the healing Bmpains
Beautiful like the holy flames... coming Cdown!
EmAll cGreatures D2of our A2God and EmKing
Lift Gup your vD2oice and A2let us Emsing
O GPraise Him!   D2O PA2raise BmHim!
AlleluCiaEm

All Creatures

by Josh Garrels

No Capo

Key:

Chorus

Em G D2 A2 Em

All creatures of our God and King

G D2 A2 Em

Lift up your voice and let us sing

G D2 A2 Bm

O Praise Him! O Praise Him!

Alleluia

(Same chord progression continues all the way thru... You'll just have to listen

to the song for the full rhythm.)

Em G

Creation sent to me the centipede to witness the

D2 A2

complexity of one hundred legs that were moving

Em G

unexpectedly, ironically, just as they were meant to be,

D2 A2

they're fearfully and wonderfully made;

Em G

An organism praised in circadian rhythms:

D2 A2

the sun will rise and then the sun will set, and then the sun will rise

Bm C

again, so lift up your head! this is life: not a static object preserved and

Em G

displayed like a relic from the dead

D2 A2

You are not a fruitless tree with a rootless disease

Em G

growin' in a bucket in a rich man's home

D2 A2

next to the TV tamed and alone

Em G

learnin' to lust for the things you don't own

D2 A2

like an arm-chair warrior who's been dethroned,

Bm C

declawed and fixed, fighting for you life with unattended slit wrists.

Em G

Don't let your name get intermingled with the number

D2 A2

cause its time to awaken from the devilish slumber,

Em G

to freely follow the Forerunner

D2 A2

to the fatherland and rally round the renaissance man

Em G

and the wisdom of His ways and all the work of His hands

D2 A2

catch come as catch can

concentrating on the good words of the Son of Man,

the plan is to withstand the demands of a confused oppressor:

Em G

a wolf in sheep's clothes

D2 A2

with monotonous lectures and questionable gestures

Em G

unequal measures cultural pressures

D2 A2

and synthetic textures, force-fed instead of the most beautiful

Em G D2 A2

architecture of our long lost, forgotten origins:

Unseen fiber in the blood of my King

And that old rock where we confessed our sins

Em G

Oh, my God, fellow man

D2 A2

in this great land they all cry out for

Em G

full restoration and this will take patience

D2 A2

And this will take the tribes and the tongues of all the nations

Em G D2

and all of creation groans in anticipation

waitin' for the Son of God to be manifest

I can feel it burnin' in my chest

liberation for the oppressed

Em G D2

And it's beautiful like the feet that bring good news...

A2 Em

Its beautiful like this freedom tune

G D2 A2

Its beautiful like the power to choose... to change

Em G D2

Beautiful like the long awaited rain

A2 Bm

Beautiful like the healing pains

Beautiful like the holy flames... coming down!

Em G D2 A2 Em

All creatures of our God and King

G D2 A2 Em

Lift up your voice and let us sing

G D2 A2 Bm

O Praise Him! O Praise Him!

C Em

Alleluia
