Author: L. W. Munhall Hymnal: Gospel Hymns No. 6 #95 (1891) First Line: Eternal life God's Word proclaims Refrain First Line: O blessed Word, O gracious Word Lyrics: 1 Eternal life God’s Word proclaims
To lost and dying men;
By it alone we know the Lord,
Unseen by mortal ken.
Refrain:
O blessed Word, O gracious Word,
We love it more and more;
O may it be our Strength and Sword,
Till earthly strife is o’er.
2 God’s grace is in His Holy Word;
We need it ev’ry day;
In all our conflicts this the sword
Our ev’ry foe to slay. [Refrain]
3 By this same Word we know our work,
And how it should be done;
How we should live, and how thro’ grace
The promised crown is won. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Eternal life God’s Word proclaims]
O Blessed Word
