Just a word for my Re­deem­er,
Who has been so kind and true;
Can I be so cold and thought­less,
While there’s much that I can do?

Refrain

Just a word may help ano­ther,
Just a word may save a bro­ther;
Just a word may be a jew­el,
In the sweet by and by.

Just a word for my Re­deem­er,
Though the path be dark and drear;
It will point a soul to Hea­ven,
And the clouds will dis­ap­pear.

Refrain

Just a word for my Re­deem­er,
To a dark and doubt­ing soul;
It will give sweet peace and com­fort,
While the pass­ing mo­ments roll.

Refrain

Just a word for my Re­deem­er,
Loving words are sure to win;
Christ will crown our fee­ble ef­forts,
Give us vic­to­ry ov­er sin.

Refrain
