{soh}Verse 2:{eoh}
[C5]Fairest of ten thousand; of ten thousand You are fair
And nothing in this world could ever measure or compare

[C5]All Your ways are just oh Lord; You're just in all Your ways
And I will lift my hands, oh Lord with gratitude and praise
For Your [Bb2]loving-kindness, [F/A]loving-kindness is better than [C5]life [F5] [(Bb2)]
