Key of Eb

Intro:

Cm  Bb  Ab
Cm  Bb  Ab

Verse 1:
                Gm              Dm
This earth’s a shadow, it won’t last
            Gm            Dm
Like every flower it will pass
                 Cm               Bb
And the sky will be rolled up someday
        F/C     Cm
and put away
        Gm            Cm
Like an old worn-out garment
           Bb            Ab
They will perish and be changed
         Gm          Eb
Every fearfully tall mountain
     Cm               F
Will vanish from its place

Chorus:
           Eb        Ab
But: Your throne Oh God
   Eb           Bb
Is forever and ever
         Eb         Ab
And your kingdom Oh God
          Eb              Bb
Stands on steady righteousness
       Eb               Ab
Though You laid earthly foundations
        Cm                  Eb
They’ll pass to herald your new creation
       Ab          Eb
You’re doing a new thing
   Bb
In us
                      Cm  Bb  Ab
Through Your righteousness


Verse 2:
      Gm                Dm
Even sun and moon and stars
        Gm                   Dm
Will be burned up where they are
       Cm          Bb
Their magnitude is nothing when it
F/C                 Cm
stands against Your hand
            Gm               Cm
And with a mighty thundering roar
                 Bb                  Ab
The façade will dissolve that is the world
             Gm                    Eb
And we’ll be aware – our eyes wide open
            Cm     F
That we’re naked before You


Chorus:
           Eb        Ab
But: Your throne Oh God
   Eb           Bb
Is forever and ever
         Eb         Ab
And your kingdom Oh God
          Eb              Bb
Stands on steady righteousness
       Eb               Ab
Though You laid earthly foundations
        Cm                  Eb
They’ll pass to herald your new creation
       Ab          Eb
You’re doing a new thing
   Bb
In us
                      Cm  Bb  Ab
Through Your righteousness


Verse 3:
          Gm            Dm
Lord: we hasten on this day
        Gm                  Dm
Of Your coming so grand and plain
   Cm               Bb
We seek to live our lives in
    F/C Cm
Holiness
        Gm            Cm
We wait for the new heavens
        Bb                 Ab
And the new earth you will make
         Gm    Eb
In which only righteousness
  Cm F
dwells!

Chorus:
           Eb        Ab
But: Your throne Oh God

Is forever and ever
         Eb         Ab
And your kingdom Oh God
          Eb              Bb
Stands on steady righteousness
       Eb               Ab
Though You laid earthly foundations
        Cm                  Eb
They’ll pass to herald your new creation
       Ab          Eb
You’re doing a new thing
   Bb
In us
                      Cm  Bb  Ab
Through Your righteousness

Bridge:
    Eb                Gm      Bb
You work, and who can turn it back?
         Ab             Cm       Bb
We’ll remember not the things of old
    Ab                   Eb
Nor will we say that the former days
        Gm      Bb
were better
        Eb               Gm       Bb
Christ Jesus sits at the Father’s hand
    Ab                        Cm      Bb
His work is done, the kingdom ushered in
     Ab                 Eb
He’s made a path in the wilderness
             Cm             Bb
That reaches Jordan’s other shore


Chorus:
           Eb        Ab
But: Your throne Oh God
   Eb           Bb
Is forever and ever
         Eb         Ab
And your kingdom Oh God
          Eb              Bb
Stands on steady righteousness
       Eb               Ab
Though You laid earthly foundations
        Cm                  Eb
They’ll pass to herald your new creation
       Ab          Eb
You’re doing a new thing
   Bb
In us
                      Cm  Bb  Ab
Through Your righteousness
