Text: | Lord, I have made thy word my choice |
Author: | Isaac Watts (1674-1748) |
Tune: | BILLING |
Composer: | Richard Runciman Terry (1865-1938) |
1 Lord, I have made thy word my choice,
my lasting heritage:
there shall my noblest powers rejoice,
my warmest thoughts engage.
2 I'll read the histories of thy love,
and keep thy laws in sight,
while through the promises I rove
with ever-fresh delight.
3 'Tis a broad land of wealth unknown,
where springs of life arise,
seeds of immortal bliss are sown,
and hidden glory lies.
