I'm Not Ashamed

Verse 1
Em7
G
Was a time as a little 
boy,
D
When I said 'I follow 
you'.
Em7
G
But the years have caused the 
flame,
D
To burn much stronger 
now.
Em7
G
And I'm not burning down any of my 
bridges,
D
But I'm burning up in
side.
Em7
G
D
To flee from my reli
gion and love my neighbour 
more.
Chorus
Em7
I'm not ashamed of the gospel,
G
D
I'm not ashamed of the one I 
love.
Em7
I'm not ashamed of the gospel,
G
D
I'm not ashamed of the one I 
love.
Verse 2
Em7
G
There where times in my bitter
ness
D
when I felt your pure affec
tion.
Em7
G
And you hear my frail petitions to serve you endless
ly.
D
But I have loved the tree that they put you 
on? 
Em7
G
Or my friend who met me at the 
cross?
D
Oh I want to sing again for my bro
ther
Em7
And find my way down this mountain.
