[E] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ We [Am] are from a church in Belfast.
We get asked by our missions pastors in the church, do
you want to go to Thailand?
And our guys being our guys are like, yeah, no hassle, we're in.
[N] Padia is probably the most openly and in your face sex, tourist, capital, whatever you want
to call it on the planet.
So we ended up playing in a brothel and someone who knew someone
who knew someone else or whatever it was, we ended up playing in a bar called the Climax
Bar and the deal was that we had a way to bring a whole load of Christians with us who
would all buy Coca-Cola and we would have the ability to play a two hour set in the
middle of this bar.
And I can remember looking out over my left shoulder and seeing just, I don't know whether
or not it was British tourists or whatever, but I can remember just looking out and here
they are in the middle of the street and they're just hearing these Jesus songs blasting out
and there's just a pile of them just standing outside the door and they were just looking
and I would love to know what's going on in their heads, you know, just wondering what
the heck are these guys singing Jesus songs for in the middle of the street?
And I just began to sing out what I believed God was saying over that city.
I just began
to say that, you know, God is the God of this city, he's the king of these people, he's
the Lord of this nation and they don't know that, they don't know that.
[Bm] And the song was
born, the [Am] song moved from, it came out of this [F] loop that started to play, a real minor
downbeat loop [Am] and it just majored up [G] into this [F] anthem of the night that just said,
[Em] Greater things have yet to come and greater [G] things have still to be done in this [C] city.
Greater things have yet to [G] come and greater things have still to be [C] done in this [Bm] city.
_ _ [Am] _ _ _
[C] _ Really, probably the [G] biggest moment in my life that [C] changed my life was the moment [G] that
God of this city was [Am] actually written, that point when that song was formulated.
[C] What
is the church on a global scale doing to [G] actually combat things which exist on our [C] planet that
are [G] completely wrong, whether it's child [Am] soldiers, prostitution in [G] your own city, [C] homeless in
your own city, anything that's going on, what is [G] the church doing?
We should be the pioneers,
we [Am] need to understand that we have an authority, that we have an authority that comes from
Christ, the same power that raised Christ from the dead lives in every single one of
us.
We actually need to have an attitude of going out and serving the [A] world, just with
love, and actually living out the Great Commission. _ _
