Author: N. F. S. Grundtvig, 1783-1872; O. G. Belsheim, 1861-1925 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #583 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Hymnal Title: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary Lyrics: God's Word is our great heritage,
And shall be ours forever;
To spread its light from age to age
Shall be our chief endeavor.
Through life it guides our way;
In death it is our stay.
Lord, grant, while worlds endure,
We keep its teachings pure,
Throughout all generations.
