273- Lord, I Have Made Thy Word My Choice

The Holy Scriptures

1

  • Lord, I have made Thy word my choice,
  • My lasting heritage;
  • There shall my noblest pow'rs rejoice,
  • My warmest thoughts engage.

2

  • I'll read the histories of Thy love,
  • And keep Thy laws in sight;
  • While through Thy promises I rove,
  • With ever fresh delight.

3

  • In this broad land of wealth unknown,
  • Where springs of life arise,
  • Seeds of immortal bliss are sown,
  • And hidden glory lies.

4

  • The best relief that mourners have,
  • It makes our sorrows blest;
  • Our fairest hope beyond the grave,
  • And our eternal rest.
