I like to use different chord voicing for the verse, chorus and bridge because it is a three chord song.
It creates variety. It also helps to have different chord voicings when you have two guitarist playing.

[Intro]
[Main Riff] x2
[Verse 1]
[Main Riff] x4 (Em)
Lift your head weary sinner, the river's just ahead
Down the path of forgiveness, salvation's waiting there
You built a mighty fortress 10,000 burdens high
Love is here to lift you up, here to lift you high
[Chorus]
EmIf you're lost and wandering
EmCome stumbling in like a prodigal child
See the Cwalls start crumbling
Let the Dgates of glory open wide
[Riff 2]
[Verse 2]
EmAll who've strayed and walked away, unspeakable things you've done
Fix your eyes on the mountain, let the past be dead and gone
Come all saints and sinners, you can't outrun God
CWhatever you've done can't overcome the Dpower of the blood
[Chorus]
EmIf you're lost and wandering
EmCome stumbling in like a prodigal child
See the Cwalls start crumbling
Let the Dgates of glory open wide
EmIf you're lost and wrecked again
EmCome stumbling in like a prodigal child
See the Cwalls start crumbling
Let the Dgates of glory open wide
[Bridge]
[Riff 3] |C D |Em Em|
[Chorus]
EmIf you're lost and wandering
EmCome stumbling in like a prodigal child
See the Cwalls start crumbling
Let the Dgates of glory open wide
EmIf you're lost and wrecked again
EmCome stumbling in like a prodigal child
See the Cwalls start crumbling
Let the Dgates of glory open wideEm
Let the gates of glory open wiCde
Let the Dgates of glory open wide
