Author: Henry W. Baker Hymnal: Hymns for the Living Church #227 (1974) Meter: 6.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 Lord, thy Word abideth,
And our footsteps guideth;
Who its truth believeth
Light and joy receiveth.
2 When our foes are near us,
Then Thy Word doth cheer us,
Word of consolation,
Message of salvation.
3 When dark clouds are o'er us,
And the storms before us,
Then its light directeth
And our way protecteth.
4 Who can tell the pleasure,
Who recount the treasure,
By thy Word imparted
To the simple-hearted?
5 O that we, discerning
Its most holy learning,
Lord, may love and fear Thee,
Evermore be near Thee.
Amen. Topics: Scriptures Scripture: Psalm 119:89 Languages: English Tune Title: RAVENSHAW
