way to the western wall,

Cause  (G major) you are the Rock and the
Cornerstone,

At the west (G major) ern wall I bowed my head,

 (G major) And I never felt so near,
Em 
Bm 
A 
 (E minor) I never felt so far away  (B minor)  (A major) 
G 
But  (G major) You tore the curtain and shook the

up and they walked around

Em 
You could tear  (E minor) down the temple
Bm 
A 
and he'd raise it from the dead  (B minor)  (A major) 
G 
 (G major) You never felt so real,
Em 
Bm 
A 
 (E minor) I never felt so close to You  (B minor)  (A major)

So I'll  (G major) weep and dance
at the western wall
Em 
And sing  (E minor) of the way you're making
Bm 
all things new  (B minor) 
A 
Cause the king (A major) dom's here,
G 
Em 
Bm 
A 
 (G major) but I know the king (E minor) dom's moving in  (B minor)  (A major)
