[Intro]
D A G
D F#m
Sometimes I, I just want to close my eyes
G D
And act like everyone’s alright when I know they’re not
D F#m
This world needs God, but it’s easier to stand and watch
G D
I could say a prayer and just move on, like nothing’s wrong
Bm A G
But I re….fuse
[Chorus]
D
Cause I don’t want to live like I don’t care
A
I don’t want to say another empty prayer
G
Oh, I refuse to
D
Sit around and wait for someone else
A
To do what God has called me to do myself
G Em A
I could choose not to move, but I refuse
D A G

D F#m
I can hear the least of these, crying out so desperately
G D
And I know we are the hands and feet of You, oh God
D F#m
So if You say move, it’s time for me to follow through
G D A
And do what I was made to do, and show them who You are
[Chorus]
Bm A D G
To stand and watch the weary and lost cry out for help
Bm A D G
I refuse to turn my back and try and act like all is well
Bm A D G
I refuse to stay unchanged, to wait another day to die to myself
Em A
I refuse to make one more excuse
[Chorus]
D A G D
