The Word of God
Is a heavenly treasure;
If read and cherished
Would bless beyond measure.
It's a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path;
Its timeless counsel
Increases my faith.
It's the Living Bread,
I feed on every verse;
It's the Water of Life
When my soul is athirst.
It helps me grow in grace
And in His knowledge;
To be like him in character
What a privilege!
It keeps me from sin
And shows me the right way;
It's hidden deep
Within my heart alway.
It greatly inspires me
To love others less fortunate,
To bring needed blessings
And show them Heaven's gate.
It highly motivates me
To shine my light in darkness,
To light the way for others
Blinded by Satan's madness.
The Blessed Word tells me
Jesus will come in glory;
How vital then to proclaim
The sweet Gospel story.
In His glorious presence
There are joy and pleasure;
In Him my soul has found
A priceless treasure!
