<p>Eternal life is in God’s Word<br>
|
|
For dead and dying men;<br>
|
|
By it alone we know the Lord,<br>
|
|
Unseen by mortal ken.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">O blessèd Word, O gracious Word,<br>
|
|
We’ll love thee more and more;<br>
|
|
Be thou our Life, our Strength, our Sword,<br>
|
|
’Till earthly strife is o’er.</p>
|
|
<p>God’s strength is in His holy Word;<br>
|
|
We need it ev’ry day;<br>
|
|
In all our conflicts this the sword<br>
|
|
Our spirit foes to slay.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>By this same Word we know our task,<br>
|
|
And how it should be done;<br>
|
|
How now to live, and how at last<br>
|
|
Our crown is to be won.</p>
