The Word of God is True

Author: C. A. M. Hymnal: New Songs of Pentecost #2 (1916) First Line: The word that God has given, why should a man deny Refrain First Line: 'Tis true, 'tis true Lyrics: 1 The word that God has given, why should a man deny? I need it while I’m living, I’ll need it when I die; It led me to a Saviour who heard my earnest cry, That is why I believe it is true. Refrain: ‘Tis true, ‘tis true, The word of God is true, It tells me I’m forgiven, it will do the same for you, I’ll cling to it forever no matter what befall, From Genesis to Revelation I believe it all. 2 If it had not been written what would a sinner do? ‘Twas written for the present and for the future too; And what to me is hidden may be revealed to you, That is why I believe it is true. [Refrain] 3 You ask why I believe it? I’m always glad to tell, It is because it saved me from an eternal hell; And led me to my Saviour with whom I’ll ever dwell, That is why I believe it is true. [Refrain] 4 I rest my hope upon it, today and evermore; I know it will not fail me, I’ve proved it o’er and o’er; And you will hear me shouting when Jordan’s billows roar, Hallelujah! I’m glad it is true. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [The word that God has given, why should a man deny]

C. Austin Miles

1868 - 1946 Person Name: C. A. M. Author of "The Word of God is True" in New Songs of Pentecost Charles Austin Miles USA 1868-1946. Born at Lakehurst, NJ, he attended the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and the University of PA. He became a pharmacist. He married Bertha H Haagen, and they had two sons: Charles and Russell. In 1892 he abandoned his pharmacy career and began writing gospel songs. At first he furnished compositions to the Hall-Mack Publishing Company, but soon became editor and manager, where he worked for 37 years. He felt he was serving God better in the gospel song writing business, than as a pharmacist. He published the following song books: “New songs of the gospel” (1900), “The service of praise” (1900), “The voice of praise” (1904), “The tribute of song” (1904), “New songs of the gospel #2” (1905), “Songs of service” (1910), “Ideal Sunday school hymns” (1912). He wrote and/or composed 400+ hymns. He died in Philadelphia, PA. John Perry
