The word of God

1. By the word of God the worlds were made,
   And are held in place by His commands;
   All the grasses wither and the flowers fade,
   But His truth forever stands.
   • Refrain:
     Oh, the precious Bible,
     Counsel for the soul,
     Path the faithful saints and martyrs trod;
     Settled in the heavens,
     True while ages roll,
     Changeless as the throne of God.
2. More to be desired than honey sweet,
   Richer are its treasures, far, than gold;
   Like a brilliant light, it shines to guide my feet,
   Never grows its story old.
3. Thy eternal law is my delight,
   Strength and daily manna to my soul;
   ’Tis my meditation all the day and night,
   Balm to make the wounded whole.
4. Stream of life from heaven, crystal pure,
   Shed thy cooling freshness over me;
   Let my thirsting spirit, till I thirst no more,
   Drink thy sparkling waters free.
