[Verse 1]
GLooked in Your eyes
They were Gburning like cigarettes
On Gtop of a head
That could Gresurrect Lazarus
CUp from the grave that somehow made You cryG  
[Verse 2]
GBoth of Your hands were rough like a carpenter's
GSo accustomed
To nails and to hammers
CNever would've thought those nails would cut insideG  
Oh, Your Chands were blessed one holy, holy nightG  
[Interlude]
C G
[Chorus]
But Gwe found Your grace
It was waiting inside of a
GDead dark place
With few survivors
It Cseems that You lived
In places I reckoned You wouldnG't
And Gall that we saw
Were people that had no hope
And GYou changed my eyes into flaming kaleidoscopes
I Csaw something that I thought for sure was fictGion
But the Cpeace that it brought me erased all of my convictGions
[Interlude]
D G D G
[Bridge]
CThere was a knife
Buried deep inside the Gpart of our hearts
Where we Dlearned how to love something Cother than us
It was built on a sandy shore
GHoping the waves wouldn't Dcome to the door
And Cgreet us with disdain and heaviness
One of Gredemption
Washing Daway all the thoughts we had Cran to beforeG  
[Outro]
Well, GYou rescued me from my disbelief
GWould You please rescue me from being a thief
Of Cthings that will burn up when it's the eGnd
The Gdust collects, yeah, dust it upsets
And Gwe are only dust at best
But CYou can breathe dust back to life agaGin
Oh, Cflood the whole world and dust will walk againG

[Verse 1]

Looked in Your eyes

They were burning like cigarettes

On top of a head

That could resurrect Lazarus

C G

Up from the grave that somehow made You cry

[Verse 2]

Both of Your hands were rough like a carpenter's

So accustomed

To nails and to hammers

C G

Never would've thought those nails would cut inside

C G

Oh, Your hands were blessed one holy, holy night

[Interlude]

C G

[Chorus]

But we found Your grace

It was waiting inside of a

Dead dark place

With few survivors

It seems that You lived

In places I reckoned You wouldn't

And all that we saw

Were people that had no hope

And You changed my eyes into flaming kaleidoscopes

C G

I saw something that I thought for sure was fiction

C G

But the peace that it brought me erased all of my convictions

[Interlude]

D G D G

[Bridge]

There was a knife

Buried deep inside the part of our hearts

D C

Where we learned how to love something other than us

It was built on a sandy shore

G D

Hoping the waves wouldn't come to the door

And greet us with disdain and heaviness

One of redemption

D C G

Washing away all the thoughts we had ran to before

[Outro]

Well, You rescued me from my disbelief

Would You please rescue me from being a thief

C G

Of things that will burn up when it's the end

The dust collects, yeah, dust it upsets

And we are only dust at best

C G

But You can breathe dust back to life again

C G

Oh, flood the whole world and dust will walk again
