Oh The Word of My Lord
Chorus
Oh the word of the Lord,
deep within my being,
oh the word of my Lord,
you have filled my mind.Verse 1
Before I formed you in the womb
I knew you through and through,
I chose you to be mine.Before you left your mother's side
I called to you, My child,
to be My sign.Chorus
Oh the word of the Lord,
deep within my being,
oh the word of my Lord,
you have filled my mind.Verse 2
I know that you are very young,
but I will make you strong
- I'll fill you with My word.And you will travel through the land,
fulfilling My command
which you have heard.Chorus
Oh the word of the Lord,
deep within my being,
oh the word of my Lord,
you have filled my mind.Verse 3
And ev'rywhere you are to go
My hand will follow you;
you will not be alone.In all the danger that you fear
you'll find Me near,
your words my own.Chorus
Oh the word of the Lord,
deep within my being,
oh the word of my Lord,
you have filled my mind.Verse 4
With all My strength you will be filled:
you will destroy and build,
for that is My design.You will create and overthrow,
reap harvests I will sow –
your word is Mine.Chorus
Oh the word of the Lord,
deep within my being,
oh the word of my Lord,
you have filled my mind.
Communion Hymn
Lord, You Have Come
Verse 1
Lord, you have come to the seashore,
neither searching for the rich nor the wise,
desiring only that I should follow.Refrain
O Lord, with your eyes set upon me,
gently smiling,
you have spoken my name;
All I longed for
I have found by the water,
at your side, I will seek other shores.Verse 2
Lord, see my goods, my possessions;
in my boat you find no power, no wealth.
Will you accept, then, my nets and labour?Refrain
O Lord, with your eyes set upon me,
gently smiling,
you have spoken my name;
All I longed for
I have found by the water,
at your side, I will seek other shores.Verse 3
Lord, take my hands and direct them.
Help me spend myself in seeking the lost,
returning love for the love you gave me.Refrain
O Lord, with your eyes set upon me, gently smiling, you have spoken my name;
All I longed for I have found by the water, at your side, I will seek other shores.Verse 4
Lord, as I drift on the waters,
be the resting place of my restless heart,
my life’s companion, my friend and refuge.
