Sun And Shield

G#m             A
Bitterness is a fault line
G#m             B
Envy's a golden calf
G#m                 A
Idols break when it all shakes down
    B                   E
And split your heart in half

    G#m                   A
You weep you sweep up the pieces
          G#m            B
It's your home, you take pride
    G#m                 A
But once it's clean and empty
           B           E
My Lord is calling you outside


[Chorus]
E            A
I lift up my eyes, turn to the sun
E             A
This is where my help's coming from
E                     A
In the heights or the battle
F#                E
You're my Sun, my Shield


[Verse 2]
    G#m            A
And if the sun can blind you
    G#m               B
And if a shield means war
    G#m            A
And if you give up before you get up
B                     E
What were you praying for?

    G#m              A
The future's an open window
G#m          B
Set in cornerstone
G#m               A
Wash off the ash, raise up the 
banner
B                 E
This is your true home


[Chorus]
E                  A
I lift up my eyes, turn to the sun
E                A
This is where my help's coming from
E                     A
In the heights or the battle
F#                E
You're my Sun, my Shield
E                  A
I lift up my eyes, turn to the sun
E                A
This is where my help's coming from
E                     A
In the heights or the battle
F#                E
You're my Sun, my Shield


(sung during the bridge and twice 
before:)
F#    A    C#m
Oooooooooooooh (my Sun, my Sun, my 
Shield)


[Bridge]
F#             A
Calling you outside
          C#m
Open your eyes
F#             A
Calling you outside
          C#m
Open your eyes

B    E


[Chorus]
E               A
So lift up your eyes, turn to the 
sun
E             A
This is where all help's coming from
E                     A
In the heights or the battlefield
F#                E
He's our Sun, our Shield

E            A
I lift up my eyes, turn to the sun
E             A
This is where my help's coming from
E                     A
In the heights or the battlefield
F#                E
You're my Sun, my Shield
F#                E
You're my Sun, my Shield
F#                E
You're my Sun, my Shield
F#                E
You're my Sun, my Shield
