Here is another new song by Ralph Merrifield. Richard Garber created this midi, but I made some significant changes to it so it would sound right on the SB Live. Hope you enjoy it!
There are many more excellent songs at Ralph's New Hope Music web site. Please visit his site for music scores and more information. - Elton, October 12, 2002

(Verse 1)
I see angels ascending, descending
On a stairway from heaven to earth.
At the top stands the Lord, God of Abr'ham.
He is mighty.
(Chorus)
How awesome is this place, dear Father.
How beautiful the house of God.
Your Presence at the gate of heaven,
It is good to be near. It is good to be here.
How awesome is this place, oh Lord.
(Verse 2)
I feel blessings ascending, descending
On the hearts and the prayers of the saints.
Through this fellowship, sweet, comes His pleasure.
He is lovely!
(Repeat Chorus)
How awesome is this place, dear Father.
How beautiful the house of God.
Your Presence at the gate of heaven,
It is good to be near. It is good to be here.
How awesome is this place, oh Lord.
(Verse 3)
To the Ancient of Days be the honor.
He is worthy alone to be praised.
We will sing through the ages in Glory
You are holy!!
(Repeat Chorus)
How awesome is this place, dear Father.
How beautiful the house of God.
Your Presence at the gate of heaven,
It is good to be near. It is good to be here.
How awesome is this place, oh Lord.
