The Word Lyrics

I stand on the Word of the Lord, hey

My first and my final resort, hey

The Word became flesh walked the earth, hey

His glory and infinite worth, hey

He left it to die for his church, hey

He died and He finished His work, hey

Was buried the rose on the third, hey

We love Him 'cuz He loved us first, hey

The Truth and the Life and the Light and the Way

Came down to this earth to be born in the hay

The Savior of all of us born as a Babe

The shepherds rejoicing and singing His praise

The magi were watching the stars they say "hey"

The star of the King it appeared here today

In the palace saw Herod they stood there dismayed

You ain't the King He was born what's the way?

Herod was angry but what did he say

He asked the scribes where Messiah would lay

In Bethlehem boy what the prophets did say

Herod then bid them farewell on their way

If you see Him then bring Him I'll Worship Him hey

The angel would tell em don't do what he say

So after they see Him they take a new way

Herod was angry and he felt betrayed

He didn't want others to rule in his place

He came up with a plan to take Jesus away

All boys two and under were murdered that day

An angel told Joseph, "get up run away!"

So Joseph took them and to Egypt escaped

After some time yeah the king passed away

They then moved from Egypt to Galilee hey

And that's where our Lord spent His growin' up days

I stand on the Word of the Lord, hey

My first and my final resort, hey

The Word became flesh walked the earth, hey

His glory and infinite worth, hey

He left it to die for his church, hey

He died and He finished His work, hey

Was buried the rose on the third, hey

We love Him 'cuz He loved us first, hey

This world so messy so sketchy like wait

There's murders and lying and stealing all day

You say I ain't do none of it there ain't no way

Jesus said if you hate you're a murderer hey

Sinners are evil and God has a way

To punish them yet show His mercy and grace

See Jesus came down perfect path did He trace

He never sinned Father's law He obeyed

He suffered and bled and He died in our place

The Father forsook Him His face turned away

The justice of God at the cross was displayed

Buried Him stone they rolled over the grave

But God wouldn't let His just Son see decay

The victory won then He rose the third day

Invites us to come and to taste of His grace

Our sin was a problem but His love is great

Although He is just He can love us the same

'Cuz He paid our debt when He suffered that pain

Before, we were sinners but He made us saints

Repent and confess that He's risen today

Today is the day of salvation hey

Your life is a vapor it passes away

You can't expect riches to last you the day

But He is eternal and He will remain

I stand on the Word of the Lord, hey

My first and my final resort, hey

The Word became flesh walked the earth, hey

His glory and infinite worth, hey

He left it to die for his church, hey

He died and He finished His work, hey

Was buried the rose on the third, hey

We love Him 'cuz He loved us first, hey
