O HOW BEAUTIFUL (PSALM 48)


2  -2”  3  3  3  3   3  -3 -3 -3
Oh how beautiful in its loftiness
3  -3  4 4  4  -3”
Is the City of God.
-3” -3” -3  -3   -3  -3”    3   -2”  3 4
God is with her, and will leave her never.
2  -2”    3    3   3    -3
We have heard, we have seen,
3  -3  4 4  4  -3”
In the City of God:
-3”  -3  -3 -3   -3” 3   -2” 3 4
That God is our fortress forever.


Chorus:

 4   -4 -4 4    -4
Your unfailing love.

Like Your name,
-3    -3”     3   -2” 3   4
Your praise shall be boundless.
 3    4   4    4     4   4    4    4
Your hand is filled with righteousness;
 4   -4 -4   4 -4
Your people rejoice
3  -3”  -3  -3   -3”   3   -2” 3   4
At the care and love that surround us.

Verse 2:
Walk around her, count her towers,
Count her ramparts, citadels--
Yet tell to the next generation:
That her strength is God, our Fortress True, for all eternity.
Our God, our Guide, our Salvation!

(Chorus)
