Word of God
Lyric and music by Douglas C.
Eltzroth
It’s inspired
God breathed it
It can be your pathway light
It can teach you
Rebuke you
Correct and train you in the right
It can take a man of God
And give him all that he needs
To be complete fully able
Equipped to do good deeds
The Word of God
The Word of God
It’s alive
It is active
Sharper than any two edged sword
Piercing deep into the life
Separating spirit and soul
Discernment so concise
It can take bone and marrow apart
It’s even able to judge
The thoughts and intentions of the heart
The Word of God
The Word of God
You should write it on the doorpost
Of your house and of your gates
You shall whet them make them sharp
Sharp enough to penetrate
You shall wear them on your fingers
Use them as frontals for your eyes
Increase your knowledge
Fear the Lord
Improve your understanding
Let them make you wise
You shall read them – read them in your closet
To your children have them publicly read
The Word of God
The Word of God
It’s alive
It is active
Sharper than any two-edged sword
Piercing deep into the life
Separating spirit and soul
Discernment so concise
Can take bone and marrow apart
It’s even able to judge
The thoughts and intentions of the heart
Inspired
God breathed it
It can be your pathway light
It can teach you
Rebuke you
Correct and train you in the right
It can take a man of God
And give him all that he needs
To be complete fully able
Equipped to do good deeds
The Word of God…
