I've done every devotional
|
Been every place emotional
|
Trying to hear a new word from God
|
And I think it's very odd,
|
that while I attempt to help myself
|
My Bible sits upon my shelf
|
With every promise
|
I could ever need
|
|
Chorus:
|
And the Word was
|
And the Word is
|
And the Word will be
|
The old Word is the new Word is
|
The old Word is the new Word is...
|
|
People are getting fit for Truth
|
Like they're buying a new tailored suit
|
Does it fit across the shoulders
|
Will it fade when it gets older
|
We throw ideas that aren't in style
|
In the Salvation Army pile
|
And search for something more to meet our needs
|
|
Bridge:
|
I think it's time I rediscover
|
All the ground that I have covered, like
|
Seek Ye first (what a verse)
|
We are pressed but not crushed,
|
perplexed but don't despair.
|
We are persecuted but not abandoned
|
We are no longer slaves
|
we are daughters and sons,
|
and when we are weak
|
we are very strong
|
|
And neither death nor life
|
nor present nor future
|
nor depth nor height
|
can keep us from the love of Christ
|
And the Word I need
|
is the Word that was
|
who put on flesh to dwell with us.
|
In the beginning....
