Verse 1
(C major) The empty canvas wait (F major)
s before the (G major) painter.
It (F major) waits to be the (G major) painting it must be. (C major)
Unto this end it's (F major) rightfully been created
(G major) To reflect (F major) rightfully what (G major) the painter sees (C major)
I must wonder what his (F major) eyes
are now be (G major) holding
As they surely (F major) turn their gaze (G major) to behold (C major) me
As my lips so often speak (F major)
the name of (G major) Jesus,
Will the can (F major) vas hold His
(G major) image within me? (C major) (G major)
(C major) For (D major) many will flee,
(G major) join at the Lord's (A major) table
And (G major) beckon there to (A major) feast or to dine (D major)
And few among us
(G major) will still be found faith (A major) ful
When we are (G major) beckoned to drink
the chalice (A major) of His wine. (D major) (G major)
(A major) But (G major) in this (A major) painting,
(G major) few will be the (A major) lovers of the cross. (D major)
(G major) (A major) (G major) (A major) (G major) (A major)
(D major) (F major)
(G major) Yet (C major) many here still seek (F major) to be exal (G major) ted,
And (F major) many here still seek (G major) to be found first. (C major)
And many here still seek (F major) a
consola (G major) tion
Demanding bless (F major) ings
when de (G major) serving the curse (C major)
(G major) Who (C major) will remain
when asked to cry (F major) in tribulation? (G major)
Who will remain
(F major) when asked to hun (G major) ger in the fast? (C major)
Who will remain
when asked to die (F major) to save an (G major) other?
Who will be first
(F major) when asked to be (G major) rewarded last? (C major)
So (D major) is n't this the pas (G major) sion of His (A major) glory
Isn't (G major) this the para (A major) dox of shame (D major)
Isn't this the beauty (G major) of His (A major) eating
Isn't (G major) this the (A major) power of His name (D major)
Few (G major) will be the (A major) lovers
with (G major) in this (A major) painting.
Few (G major) will be the (A major) lovers of His cross. (D major)
And (G major) few will be the (A major) lovers
with (G major) in this (A major) painting.
(G major) Few will be the (A major) lovers of
Outro 1
His cross.
(D major) (G major) (A major) (G major) (A major) (G major) (A major)
(D major)
