Awake Awake O Church

 
Verse 1
  A                        Am7sus4
Awake, awake, O church, come clothe yourself with strength
C                         D             G
 Put on Your robes of splendour and of joy again
       G                         Am7sus4
Shake off the dust that clings, rise up and sit enthroned
C                         D                    D
 And free yourself from chains that keep on hindering

Pre-chorus
   D/F#      Em                   C2
And as for me, I'm taking off my shoes
Em               C2                  Em
  This is holy ground I'm standing on
                 C2           D                        Dsus4  D
I'm kicking off my shoes for this will be the ground I dance upon

Chorus
  G        C      G    C   Am7sus4      G/B     C          D
Isn't it  to celebrate, sing those songs, sing those songs
  G        C       G         C  Am7sus4      G/B    C         D
Isn't it  to shout them out, shout them loud, shout them loud
Am7sus4                    G/B                        C
       I'm shaking off the dust, I'm kicking off my shoes
                  D                 Am7sus4
I'm giving all I have to worship You
                G/B                           C2
The fire in my heart is burning through the chains
       D                       Dsus4   D
It's  to praise like we've never praised

Verse 2
       G                  Am7sus4
We'll look to what's ahead, forget what is behind
C                      D                   G
 Press on towards the goal, that we might win the prize
       G                   Am7sus4
We'll persevere in faith, abandoned to Your praise
C                       D                G
 Fill every  with passion, as our voices rise
