lyrics

The Body of Christ
Words and music: Bruce Benedict, May 2019
Demo for Porters Gate Project, Vol. 2

VERSE 1
C F C
When your life is broken - the body of Christ
G F. C
When your knees are falling - the body of Christ
Am F C
When your hands are barely holding - the body of Christ
C F C
Every need of your life - the body of Christ

CHORUS:
Am F G C
Oh the body, oh the body, oh the body of Christ
Oh the body, oh the body, oh the body of Christ
From your birth, to the grave, it’s the kingdom lifes
Every need, every day, oh the body of Christ

INTERLUDE
Dm C F (Repeat) Gsus G

VERSE 2
When your neighbor fails you - the body of Christ
When your husband leaves you - the body of Christ
When your friend deceives you - the body of Christ
IN the valley, in the darkness - the body of Christ

VERSE 3
...you could have your worship team or congregation write or riff on other verses to sing, where the congregation carries on the response "The body of Christ"
