HOW BEAUTIFUL 
from Twila Paris’ A Heart That Knows You 
             Words by Twila Paris        (C) Star Song  (1992) 
This song is best left to the pianist but, with a nylon string
classical guitar, a flat pick, a slower tempo and with some chord
modifications, it sounds pretty on the guitar also.  If anybody
has a version closer to the CD, please help me out. 
Peace,

How beautiful, the tender eyes.  That choose to forgive and never despise.

And as He laid down His life.  We offer this sacrifice.  That we will live, just as He died. 

 D          G              D           D         G         D 
Willing to pay to pay the price.      Willing to pay the price.
