ENGLISH / OWEN ALSTOTT / PSALMS
Psalm 46:2-3,5-6,8-9
Lyrics
Chorus The waters of the river gladden the city of God, the holy dwelling of the Most High! Verse 1 God is our refuge and our strength, An ever-present help in distress. Therefore, we fear not, though the earth be shaken And mountains plunge into the depths of the sea. Verse 2 There is a stream whose runlets gladden the city of God, The holy dwelling of the Most High. God is in its midst; it shall not be disturbed; God will help it at the break of dawn. Verse 3 The Lord of hosts is with us; Our stronghold is the God of Jacob. Come! Behold the deeds of the Lord, The astounding things he has wrought on earth.
