YOUR WORDS ARE SPIRIT AND LIFE-O LORD
YOUR WORDS ARE SPIRIT AND LIFE-
O LORD
There is a POPULAR Christian song
That contains the line-
“YOUR WORDS are spirit and love-
O Lord”
And I couldn't agree more
WORDS to LIVE BY
Many of us are looking
For a hint or a sign
That OUR GOD is alive today
ALL we really have to do
Is OPEN our bible-and read
THE WORD
The words in psalms-the words of proverbs-
And particularly the lines where-
Jesus is speaking
Your words are SPIRIT & LIFE-
O Lord
And music to my ears-and
Reach down and touch my very soul
God is ALIVE-in BOTH you and me
His very words-GIVE US LIFE
“He rises up the lowly
From the dust
From the dunghill
He lifts up the poor
To seat them
With princes
With the princes
Of his own people” Psalm 113:7-8
Your very words-O Lord-
Inspire us
They give us HOPE
They give us SPIRIT
Your words are
WORDS to live by
“To live for my family-
friends-and ALL PEOPLE everywhere”
EVERY DAY-when I read
The GOOD BOOK
I RENEW my promise
I renew my covenant
With you Lord
YOUR WORDS are spirit and life
O Lord
“CREATE in me
A PURE heart-O God
And RENEW a steadfast spirit
Within me” Psalm 51:10
“BLESSED are the poor
In spirit
For theirs is
The kingdom of heaven” Matthew 5:3
“God is spirit
And his worshipers
MUST worship
In the SPIRIT
And in truth” John 4:24
Your words are spirit
Your words are life
And when we LIVE
In them
We live FOREVER in you
For your words LAST forever
“Heaven and earth
Will pass away
But my words-
Will NEVER pass away” Matthew24:35
“Simon Peter answered him,
'Lord-to whom
Shall we go
You have the words
Of ETERNAL LIFE'” John 6:68
So we need no sign
From you Lord
For we KNOW
NO SIGNS will be given
To us-
EXCEPT the sign of Jonah
We know you are with us
We know
You are the Word Made FLESH
And we know
We will LIVE FOREVER in you
For your words
ARE SPIRIT AND LIFE-O LORD
And the SPIRIT will live forever-
We look forward to living
FOREVER IN YOU
