Today’s hymn sung

1 Lord, thy word abideth,

and our footsteps guideth;

who its truth believeth

light and joy receiveth.

2 When our foes are near us,

then thy word doth cheer us,

word of consolation,

message of salvation.

3 When the storms are o'er us,

and dark clouds before us,

then its light directeth,

and our way protecteth.

4 Who can tell the pleasure,

who recount the treasure,

by thy word imparted

to the simple-hearted?

5 Word of mercy, giving

succour to the living;

word of life, supplying

comfort to the dying.

6 O that we discerning

its most holy learning,

Lord, may love and fear thee,

evermore be near thee.

Henry Williams Baker (1821-1877)
