Chords for Beautiful Eulogy - Worthy (Theology Applied)

_ _ Immediately, the title Worthy is causing us to [D] focus on Him, and that's a title that
can only communicate someone who is God.
[F#m] It does feel like a more mature record in comparison to the other two.
I think part of that is [D] life changes, and the other part of it is just like the time
that we've all spent together, the [E] three of us, and feeling more confident in who we
are as a group.
There was no question what we're going to be doing [A] on this album. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F#m] Yeah, well, we started this record about two years ago, and then we just came into a season
[D] where _ it became really challenging for us.
There was an increasing [F#m] burden towards pastoral ministry, and so that kind of burden is boiling
up, [D] but then on the other hand, I just started experiencing health issues.
We [F#m] were on the road, and after that run, his body was just thrashed.
He said, guys, I [D] just can't give any more.
And so _ _ we just [E] decided, okay, we'll wait.
So you have all these kind of factors playing in.
You have just [A] personal weakness as well as the aspiration to make something _ [F#m] that would
fit within our catalog.
[A] We had audiences that were really blessed [D] by the other records, and we didn't want to
make something that was less.
If this record is going to be the weak [F#m] link in the chain of our records, we'd rather not
[A] put it out and just leave it where we left [D] off.
So we just kept getting pushed further and further along.
And then just the woes of [F#m] ministry.
_ Both Brian and I serve [A] as pastors, and so _ ministry takes [D] an interesting toll on you.
But I think God in His kindness used that [E] two years of _ wrestling through things, the
pressures [A] of life, all those things, I think the Lord used it to produce in us this [F#m] rich
and deep sense of dependence.
[A] _
Feeling weak was like the [D] common theme in creating the [C] record.
It was actually just this trusting, okay, God, you have given me this task to do.
I feel incapable of doing it, but I'm going to trust that you are capable of using me
[D] to do something that is beyond [F] myself.
Finally, we were like, we [C] have to do this.
This will be the first record where _ _ I'm as transparent as I possibly can be.
We've been [D] creating music that [F]
reflects what our life has [C] looked like over the last
four years, serving [Am] people, suffering with [C] people, learning what it means to be [F] a father,
feeling the tension of [G] failure and all these [Em] aspects.
I think [E] this record is [F] really _ _ our theology [Em] applied.
There was an intimidation [F] with creating this record because we're [C] adding to this body
of work that we're beginning to feel [D] disconnected from, meaning [F] so much had changed in our [C] lives now.
Cortland is a husband.
He wasn't a husband [Am] in either of the previous records we made.
[C]
Thomas is a father.
He [F] wasn't a father in either of the previous records we made.
That meant [G] that the way in [C] which we created [Em] looked different.
Back when we first [F] started _ Beautiful Eulogy, there would be times where I was [Em] away on a
tour [F] doing a beat [C] set somewhere, and the guys emailed me and were like, here's [D] the track.
It was completely [F]
stripped of the things that I had [C] in it that I felt like was creating the emotion.
But [Am] they were like, no, man, we need to eliminate [C] all this stuff and leave [F] some space and just
keep it real open.
Through that situation and [G] going through multiple [Em] things like that while making [F] Satellite Kiting
Instruments of Mercy, I started to understand [C] what the guys needed to [F] feel good [C] about rapping over.
I was able to kind of step into my own space a little bit and think about what am I trying
to communicate about the worthiness of God on each one of these songs and how those concepts
[D] play into the emotion of that track.
I think [Fm] what we really wanted to do is we wanted [C] to make a worship record, a record
[A] that put the bigness of God at the forefront of [E] everybody's heart and [F] mind.
I believe that all the hardship in making this [G] record was necessary.
[Em]
God continued to [F] warm our hearts by revealing his faithfulness so that we [Em] could declare
it with an _ [F]
experiential passion to [C] say, I believe these things are true about God and
[Dm] I've experienced [F] these things are true about God.
[C] And therefore I can _ authentically declare [Am] them to you _ [C] without any reservation.
Our [F] hope for this record is that you walk [G] away [C] not thinking [Em]
about beautiful eulogy,
[F] but you walk away thinking about God and that you [Em] would be compelled and [F] driven [C] into worship. _ _ _ _ _
