Thank You For Your Word

God's Word was given to us to show us what we should do each day as we walk through our life with Him. It was also given to us to tell us about His Son, Jesus Christ, who is our Lord, our Saviour, and our Friend. Without God's Word, where would we be? It is probably the fourth most important thing God has given us - the first being His Son to die on the Cross for us, the second being the Eternal Life that Jesus' resurrection gave us, and the third being God's Holy Spirit to be our Comforter and Guide. So, with these words below, I thank the Lord for giving me His Word.

Thank you for your word

Thank You, Lord, for giving me
Your Word to guide my way,
For it is the lamp that lights my path
So I will not be led astray.

Your Word is the only thing I trust
When I need guidance in my life,
For Your Word is Truth, and nothing else
Can keep me safe from strife.

When doubt and fear cloud my troubled mind,
Your Word holds the answers I need,
And when thirst and hunger fill my soul,
It is on Your Word alone I feed.

When my enemies gather around me,
Your Word is my sword and my shield,
And when I use it as my weapon,
My enemies and foes have to yield.

Your Word is a safe place of refuge,
A harbour from the storms of my life,
And I know when I'm wrapped in their blanket
I'm safe from all worry and strife.

Yes, Your Word is all I can depend on,
The only thing on which my heart can rely,
For men can be so deceitful
And destroy so many folk when they lie.

So, I thank You for Your Word, my Lord,
That reveals to me Your will,
And hope that I can use it, Lord,
Your purpose for me to fulfil.

Let me show Your hurting people, Lord
That all Your promises are true,
And that if they have faith in Your Word,
You will always see them through.
