Briggs Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 54 hymnals Topics: Holy Spirit Illuminator Lyrics: 1 God hath spoken by the prophets, spoken the unchanging Word, each from age to age proclaiming God the one, the righteous Lord. In the world's despair and turmoil one firm anchor holds us fast: God is king, his throne eternal, God the first, and God the last. 2 God hath spoken by Christ Jesus, Christ, the everlasting Son, brightness of the Father's glory, with the Father ever one; spoken by the Word incarnate, God of God, ere time was born; Light of Light, to earth descending, Christ, as God in human form. 3 God is speaking by his Spirit, speaking to our hearts again; in the agelong Word expounding God's own message, now as then. Through the rise and fall of nations one sure faith yet standing fast: God abides, his Word unchanging, God the first, and God the last. Scripture: Psalm 119:89 Used With Tune: ODE TO JOY
