How powerful is the glorious Word

James Relly • English

Primary Scripture: Zechariah 8:20-22

Verse 1

How pow'rful is the glor'ous word! The unctious word of God, Which preaches Jesus Christ, our Lord, His suff'rings, death and blood.

Verse 2

How it reveals his mystery! Who did our souls redeem; Explains the sacred unity, And shouts us, sav'd in him.

Verse 3

It shews us ev'ry law command, Dear Lamb, fulfill'd in thee; And bids us, fast and fearless stand, Where thou hast made us free.

Verse 4

Dear, glorious Lamb, we thee adore; We praise thee, for thy word: But for thyself, we praise thee more, O! holy, holy Lord.
