The Word of God is like a light That shines serenely thro' the night; Its rays will light my weary way To the realms of a fair, unending day. Refrain The Word of God is strong and sure, Forevermore it shall endure, When oceans cease to kiss the shore, When suns shall set to rise no more; 'Mid crash of worlds it shall remain Unshaken midst the starry rain, Upon its firm foundation strong, I will plant my feet thro' the ages long. The Word of God is like a sword That pierces hearts, thus saith the Lord; And like a hammer, weighty, strong, That can break up the rocks of sin and wrong. Refrain The Word of God is like the bread On which the hosts of old were fed; From Heav'n it came to fill our need, Hungry hearts it will satisfy indeed. Refrain The Word of God is like a fire, It kindles in our hearts desire To see its Author face to face And to know all the fullness of His grace. Refrain
