Christian Praise ‎#40ss

40ss. Lord, we have made thy word our choice

1 Lord, we have made thy word our choice;
Our lasting heritage;
Therein our noblest powers rejoice;
Our warmest thoughts engage.

2 We'll read the hist'ries of thy love,
And keep thy laws insight,
While through thy promises we rove,
With ever fresh delight.

3 'Tis a broad land of wealth unknown,
Where springs of life arise,
Seeds of immortal bliss are sown,
And hidden glory lies.

4 The best relief that mourners have,
It makes our sorrows blest;
Our fairest hope beyond the grave,
And our eternal rest.

5 Still may thy counsels, gracious Lord,
Our wandering feet command;
Nor we forsake the happy road,
That leads to thy right hand.
