Praise God for His Word!
From its pag­es di­vine
Came the light of His love
To this poor heart of mine:
I had wan­dered afar
In the by­ways of sin,
When the light of His truth
To my heart en­tered in.

Refrain

Praise God for His grace
Which its pag­es un­fold!
For the sto­ry of love
Which will ne­ver grow old!
For the light on life’s path­way
Which streams from its pag­es!
Praise God for His Word,
Blessèd Book of the Ag­es!

Praise God for His Word;
For the hea­ven­ly light
It is send­ing afar
Into sin’s dark­some night;
For the hope which it gives,
Where be­fore was des­pair,
For the Hea­ven re­vealed,
And the way lead­ing there!

Refrain

Praise God for His Word!
Not a pro­mise shall fail;
Whatsoe’er may op­pose,
Still its truth will pre­vail:
’Tis the Word of our God
And fore’er must en­dure;
Earth and Hea­ven may pass,
But it stand­eth se­cure.

Refrain
