Judas Our Brother

A# Gm My heart began to race as I drank of your blood, Dm F And again I felt the sleep wash over me like a flood. A# Gm Blessed and anointed, I stepped out in your name Dm F Blinded, I thought I carried purpose like a flame. A# Gm I'm struck deaf and dumb, Dm Alone amongst the olives. F A# How could I have just given up the Lamb without blemish? Gm Dm I thought I'd be the one to spring the trap, F That knowing look in Your eye as you handed me the cup. A# Gm Dm F Bearer of Your shining light, it's all been building to this. A# Gm How was I so blind? F Dm Realization has pulled the veil from eyes. A# Sleep has given way to cold sobriety. Gm F Now I finally see that Your purpose wasn't revolution. Dm A# Rather, unconditional, loving inclusion. Gm I watched the rock sheath his weapon. Dm An empathic hand on the head of the Roman. I don't want their tainted money. That was never the motivation. My spring on the latch, failed midnight incursion. I thought I knew The Word, heeded Your lessons, But my pride has left me in ruins. A# Gm Dm F How was I so blind? How did I miss it? A# Gm Dm F How was I so blind? How did I miss it? F Dm Oh, Brother Judas, woe to thee! A# Gm I've handed over my Savior, damned to hang from a tree. F Dm Oh, Brother Jesus, Your name blessed be. A# Gm I will hang with thee; I will hang with thee! F Dm Oh, Brother Judas, woe to thee! (How was I so blind?) A# Gm I've handed over my Savior, damned to hang from a tree (How did I miss it?) F Dm Oh, Brother Jesus, Your name blessed be (How was I so blind?). A# Gm I will hang with thee; I will hang with thee! (How did I miss it?)
