<\/a>Years and years ago, the song \u201cThy Word\u201d was made known to the world. It\u2019s been used pretty well through the years and perhaps many are tired of hearing it. But here\u2019s the thing. The lyrics are so powerful!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
So don\u2019t think of yourself sitting around at camp singing this song. Don\u2019t think of yourself singing this song in youth group. Read through the lyrics of this song with fresh eyes. What do you see?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Word, God\u2019s Word is a compass for our lives. The Bible shines a light for us to see. This light will guide our feet as we wander down the path of life.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Regardless of our situation in life, the Bible has a word of encouragement, instruction or redirection.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Are you afraid? Isaiah 2:10 is a verse you need to recall.<\/p>\n
Do you feel lost? Take a look at Psalm 25:4-5.<\/p>\n
Feeling unloved? Remember Ephesians 2:19.<\/p>\n
Do you feel like you\u2019re alone? You\u2019ll want to keep 1 Peter 5:7 nearby.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This is the short list. The very short list. God\u2019s Word is relevant, important and essential for living in this world around us. It is living and active and will guide us as we go through our days. Now that\u2019s a Word I want to keep handy!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So as you read through these lyrics and listen to the song (see below), really think about how God\u2019s Word can be a vital part of your life. There is nothing sweeter than finding a new revelation or insight into a passage of Scripture. In order for that to happen, you must be a student of Scripture. I pray that you will find a deep desire to spend quality time in the Bible. It will lead and guide you as you never thought possible.<\/p>\n
