The Word Is Alive
It’s Melodic Monday! Today’s song celebrates the Word of God: The Word Is Alive by Casting Crowns. We really need Jesus. We really need the Bible. Jesus is alive and the Bible is the living word. The Word of God is our lifeline to God. Use it! It is a gift from God!
Looking out from His throne, the Father of light and of men
Chose to make Himself known and show us the way back to Him
Speaking wisdom and truth into the hearts of peasants and kings
He began to unveil the Word that would change the course of all things
With eyes wide open, all would see
The Word is alive
And it cuts like a sword through the darkness
With a message of life to the hopeless and afraid
Breathing life into all who believe
The Word is alive
And the world and its glories will fade
But His truth, it will not pass away
It remains yesterday and forever the same
The Word is alive
Simple strokes on a page
Eternity’s secrets revealed, carried on from age to age
It speaks Truth to us even still
And as the rain falls from Heaven, feeds the earth before it returns
Lord, let Your Word fall on us and bring forth the fruit You deserve
With eyes wide open, let us see
The Word is alive
His Word is alive
Gracious God,
Thank you for the living word!
Draw us into reading it.
Draw us into being read by you
and being changed by you.
Thank you for being the same
yesterday, today, and forever.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen
