Ancient Words

I just had to share the lyrics to this hymn that I fell in love with this weekend at the BSF Leaders Retreat! I have been looking for a song that I can focus on this year and I have found one! This year I am praying that the Word of God will come alive more than ever in my life. That I will fall more in love with it each day. I pray that it will change me and make me more like Christ. I pray that as I share it with others that I will see God's power in a very real way!

Ancient Words

Holy words, long preserved
For our walk in this world
They resound with God's own heart
O let the ancient words impart

Words of life, words of hope
Give us strength, help us cope
In this world where'er we roam
Ancient words will guide us home

Ancient words, ever true
Changing me, changing you
We have come with open hearts
O let the ancient words impart

Holy words of our faith
Handed down to this age
Came to us through sacrifice
O heed the faithful words of Christ

Ancient words, ever true
Changing me, changing you
We have come, with open hearts
O let the ancient words impart

Martyr's blood stains each page
They have died for this faith
Hear them cry through the years
Heed these words and hold them dear

Ancient words, ever true
Changing me, changing you
We have come with open hearts
O let the ancient words impart
