Thy words to me are life and health

1 Your words to me are life and health;
pour strength into my soul;
enable, guide, and teach my heart
to reach its perfect goal!

2 Your words to me are light and truth;
from day to day they show
their wisdom, passing earthly lore,
as in their truth I grow.

3 Your words to me are full of joy,
of beauty, peace, and grace;
from them I learn your blessed will,
through them I see your face.

4 Your words you have fulfilled on earth,
yourself, the living Word;
within my heart your image print
in clearest lines, O Lord.
