Watchtower Bible and Tract Society – Be Steadfast Like Ruth (Guitar)

Bb           Gdim Cm      F7
Naomi encour-aged Ruth to leave,

Cm              F7   Faug Bb
Even though the part-ing  would her grieve.

Bb          D7        Eb       Gdim
But to Moab Ruth just won't re-turn,

Bb        Gdim      F7  Bb F7   Bb
Since her heart for Nao-mi does yearn.

Bb               Gdim Cm     F7
"No I never will a-   bandon you.

Cm                 F7    Faug Bb
Where you will be, there I    would be too.

Bb                D7        Eb      Gdim
And where you lie down, the I would lie.

Bb        Gdim     F7           Bb  F7 Bb
And where you die, there please let me die."

Bb                     Gdim Cm     F7
"For your people shall my   people be.

Cm              F7  Faug Bb
And your God my God e-   ternally.

Bb             D7     Eb        Gdim
May our God do so and add there-to

Bb           Gdim F7      Bb   F7   Bb
Should ought sepa-rate my soul from you."

Bb                    Gdim Cm       F7
O what faith and love fair Ruth dis-played!

Cm          F7  Faug Bb
She a noble pat-tern for us made.

Bb          D7        Eb        Gdim
May we ever show like steadfast-ness.

Bb     Gdim      F7      Bb   F7    Bb
Firmly cleave to God and righ-teous-ness.
