Psalm 46 To the tune of "America the Beautiful." [Verse 1]
    G              D
God is our refuge and our strength,

     D7           G
Our ever present aid,

       G                     D
And, therefore, though the earth remove,

    A       A7    D     D7
We will not be afraid;

         G               D
Though hills amidst the seas be cast,

         D7            G
Though foaming waters roar,

       C                G
Yea, though the mighty billows shake

      C       D        G
The mountains on the shore.
[Verse 2]
    G                  D
A river flows whose streams make glad

     D7          G
The city of our God,

     G              D
The holy place wherein the Lord

       A      A7    D     D7
Most High has His abode;

       G              D
Since God is in the midst of her,

   D7                     G
Unmoved her walls shall stand,

     C               G
For God will be her early help,

       C     D      G
When trouble is at hand.
[Verse 3]
      G                  D
The nations raged, the kingdoms moved,

     D7                  G
But when His voice was heard

      G                  D
The troubled earth was stilled to peace

    A       A7     D     D7
Before His mighty word.

     G               D
The Lord of Hosts is on our side,

     D7           G
Our safety to secure;

     C           G
The God of Jacob is for us

   C        D        G
A refuge strong and sure.
[Verse 4]
   G                  D
O come, behold what wondrous works

    D7               G
Jehovah's hand has wrought;

      G            D
Come see what desolation great

   A       A7          D     D7
He on the earth has brought.

     G             D
To utmost ends of all the earth

    D7              G
He causes wars to cease;

     C                G
The weapons of the strong destroyed,

     C     D      G
He makes abiding peace.
[Verse 5]
    G                  D
Be still and know that I am God,

      D7          G
O'er all exalted high;

     G              D
The subject nations of the earth

    A          A7  D    D7
My Name shall magnify.

     G               D
The Lord of Hosts is on our side,

     D7          G
Our safety to secure;

     C            G
The God of Jacob is for us

    C       D        G
A refuge strong and sure.
