Psalm 46 :: Joel Howard

PSALM 46

C                 Csus                C
God is our refuge and strength
             G/B          Am         F
A very present help in trouble
C                           Csus        C
Therefore we will not fear
                        Csus          C
Though the earth gives way
                      G/B                   Am
Though the mountains be moved
                 F                                     C
Into the heart of the sea

                     G/B                     F
Though its waters roar and foam
                           C                                        G
Though the mountains tremble at its swelling
           Am            F
They roar and foam
                       C                                             G
Though the mountains tremble at its swelling

                    G                    F                        C
There is a river whose streams make glad
                      G                    F              C                           G
The city of God – the holy habitation of the Most High
                          G    F      C
God is in the midst of her
                               G
She shall not be moved
                   F                                              C
God will help her when the morning dawns

                       G/B            F               C
The nations rage – the kingdoms totter
                       G/B               F          Am
He utters his voice – the earth melts
        Bb                    F     
The LORD of hosts is with us
          C                                G
The God of Jacob is our fortress
            Bb                        F                 C
The LORD of hosts is with us

Am                          F                      C           G
Come, behold the works of the LORD
                               Am              F            C           G
How he brought desolations on the earth
                  Am                             F               C  
He makes wars cease to the end of the earth
          G             Am              F                 C
He breaks the bow and shatters the spear
        G              Am      F       C        G
He burns the chariots with fire

Bb                F                     C
Be still and know I am God
Bb               F                         C                              G
Be still and know I will be exalted among the nations
Bb                   F                     Am                 G        
Be still and know I will be exalted in the earth

Bb                                     F
The LORD of hosts is with us
           C                                  G
The God of Jacob is our fortress
Bb                               F                 C
The LORD of hosts is with us
