Hymn 291
Lord, Thy word abideth
Jesu, ọrọ Rẹ, yè
- Lord, Thy word abideth,
And our footsteps guideth;
Who its truth believeth
Light and joy receiveth. - When our foes are near us,
Then thy Word doth cheer us,
Word of consolation,
Message of salvation. - When the storms are o'er us,
And dark clouds before us,
Then its light directeth,
And our way protecteth. - Who can tell the pleasure,
Who recount the treasure,
By thy Word imparted
To the simple-hearted? - Word of mercy, giving
Succor to the living;
Word of life, supplying
Comfort to the dying! - Oh that we, discerning,
Its most holy learning,
Lord, may love and fear Thee,
Evermore be near Thee. Amin.
