Word Of God Across The Ages [#WordOfGodAcrossTheAges #WordOfGod #AcrossTheAges]

Song written by:
Original in English: Ferdinand Q. Blanchard

1
Word of God across the ages
Comes your message to our life
Source of hope forever present
In our toil and fears and strife
Constant witness to God’s mer cy
Still our grace whate’er be fall
Guide unfailing strength eternal
Offered freely to us all

2
Story of our wondrous journey
From the shadows of the night
Garnered truth of sage and prophet
Guiding forward into light
Words and deeds of Christ our teacher
Pointing to the life and way
Still appealing still inspiring
‘Mid the struggles of today

3
In the tongues of all the peoples
May the message bless and heal
As devout and patient scholars
More and more its depths reveal
Bless O God to wise and simple
With your truth of ageless worth
Till all lands receive the witness
And your knowledge fills the earth
