Eternal Life Is In Gods Word

Eternal life is in God's Word

For dead and dying men;

By it alone we know the Lord,

Unseen by mortal ken.

Refrain

O blessèd Word, O gracious Word,

We'll love thee more and more;

Be thou our Life, our Strength, our Sword,

'Till earthly strife is o'er.

God's strength is in His holy Word;

We need it ev'ry day;

In all our conflicts this the sword

Our spirit foes to slay.

Refrain

By this same Word we know our task,

And how it should be done;

How now to live, and how at last

Our crown is to be won.
