Word of God from Bible page,

Sacred wisdom for life’s way,

Framed within a distant age,

Breaking forth in power today.

Word of God through science found,

Treasuries of Planet Earth,

Boundless galaxies around,

Heritage of priceless worth.

Word of God in prophet’s cry,

Seldom welcome, ever true.

Brave credentials testify,

In our time a crucial view.

Word of God in Jesus met,

Teaching, serving unto death.

Son of Man our comrade yet

Through the Spirit’s vital breath.

Word of God inviting still,

Voice eternal always near,

Urging from complacent will,

Sensed by those with ears to hear.

Tune: Innocents (As the Sun Doth Daily Rise) or any 7.7.7.7
