Stranger To Holiness

Eb/Bb			      Bb
Looks like a boy's in trouble again
Eb/Bb				     Bb
Living much too close to the edge of sin
F2/A		Dm7		     Eb
Now he finds himself where he should not have been
Eb/Bb		  	  Bb
Oh God why is Your peace so hard to find
	Eb/Bb			      Bb
And the answer to the questions that haunt my mind
F2/A  Dm7      	         Eb
  Oh Lord, Your ways are not like mine

Chorus:
		    Eb/Bb     Bb	  F
And it pounds like thunder within in my breast
	Gm	     Eb2
All the anger of my humanness
	     Eb/Bb		Bb      F
And though I call You "Lord" I must confess
	Gm     Cm7	F   Bb	   Gm	    Cm7	    Fsus F Eb/Bb  Bb
I'm a stranger to Your holiness, a stranger to Your holiness

Can we really be what we were meant to be
Jesus' people, living by the Spirit and living free
My heart longs to serve, but wanders so aimlessly
Oh Lord You deserve every part of me

CHORUS

Gm		/F   Eb2	Bb/F			 F2
Hear my cry of desperation as I see the wickedness of my ways
Gm		/F  Eb2			   Bb/F
You alone are my salvation, and Lord I've learned this one thing to be true
	    Fsus	       F		Eb/Bb  Bb
Is that the closer I get to You, I see I'm a stranger   (to Your holiness)
Eb/Bb		   Bb   Eb/Bb			Bb
Don't wanna be no stranger, and it burns like a fire

CHORUS

VAMP:
Eb/Bb	    Bb
