Word Of Life And Light

orchidee



Tune: Ravenshaw

('Lord thy word abideth')

Psalm 119 v.105,111 & 112

**********

Your word it a lamp be

To my feet, I clear see

And a light to my part

I your sure guidance hath (have)

 

Light of life, illuming

Bring to heart, mind, each thing

That we need to follow

You, and each day more know

 

One step at a time here

Trusting your presence near

Your word my heritage

Give me wisdom, courage

 

To incline my heart e'er

To obey, so well fare

In your will and your ways

Guide me here through all days

      Angela Here - Thanks UNCLE STEVE you allways shed a bit of light into my Day. One of my fave hymns love the Karyoke Layout ! Im still @ Work - tea break - next Client 4:30 pm. Like the hymn - Psalm 119 eulogises the BIBLE - The one & only divine Word of God ! Im not biased just correct ! You have chosen three good verses to share metrically !

      V. 105 The BIBLE enlightens our Minds
      V. 111 The BIBLE is our Heritage & Joy
      V. 112 We should spply the BIBLE to our lives.

      Blessings & Joy to You & Your Monastic Mutt !
