Christ, your word abides

(one verse introduction)

Christ, your word abides,
and our footsteps guide.
In its truth do we believe,
light and joy receive.

When the storms are near us,
then your word does cheer us.
Word of consolation,
message of salvation.

Who can tell the pleasure,
who recount the treasure
by your word imparted
to the simple hearted.

O that we discerning
that most holy learning,
Christ, may love and worship you.
Ever more be near you.
Amen.
