The Living Word
“The Word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart” (Hebrews 4:12).
The Living Word, how powerful,
Its comforts fill my heart,
Its light is to my feet a guide,
Its pages, peace impart:
It cheers my soul, it gives me joy,
When all around is dim;
It speaks of truth, and life, and health,
And occupies with HIM.
With HIM, my Savior, and my Friend,
Telling of all His ways,
Of love, and grace, and tenderness,
Filling my heart with praise.
Oh let me value all my life,
This precious book, divine;
Reading its message through and through,
Prizing each sacred line.
