Misc Praise Songs – Glorious Things Of Thee Are Spoken (Guitar)

D                  A        D
[tab]G          A
Zion, city of our God;

D                A      D
he whose word cannot be broken

G                   A
formed thee for his own abode:

               C    A
on the Rock of Ages founded,

                   E      A
what can shake thy sure repose?

D       G                 D
With salvation's walls surrounded,

G                    D   A   D
Thou may'st smile at all thy foes.

D                   A      D
See, the streams of living waters,

G               A
springing from eternal love,

D               A        D
well supply thy sons and daughters,

G               A
and all fear of want remove;

                     C      A
who can faint, while such a river

                 E      A
ever flows their thirst t'assuage?-

D            G                  D
grace which, like the Lord, the giver,

G                D   A  D
never fails from age to age.

D              A      D
Round each habitation hov'ring,

G                 A
see the cloud and fire appear

D           A     D
for a glory and a cov'ring,

G                A
showing that the Lord is near:

              C          A
thus deriving from their banner

                   E        A
light by night and shade by day,

D         G             D
safe they feed upon the manna

G                   D    A    D
which he gives them when they pray.

D             A      D
Savior, if of Zion's city

G                   A
I, through grace, a member am,

D               A       D
let the world deride or pity,

G            A
I will glory in thy name:

              C           A
fading is the worldling's pleasure,

                E        A
all his boasted pomp and show;

D     G                D
solid joys and lasting treasure

G               D   A    D
none but Zion's children know.
