Thy words unto my taste are sweet


Ephesians_5-2-2: And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savour

Ephesians_5-2-2: And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savour

Thy words unto my taste are sweet,

O Lord of hosts, Thy truth I love;

The light it shed, before my feet,

Streams from Thy dazzling place above.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 O joy, within the page to find

Such wondrous treasures all my own;

To trace the mysteries of thy mind,

And reach the splendours of Thy throne!

 

 

 

 

 

No human wisdom touched that height,

No creature tongue sang that high strain

Thy breath breathed forth the holy light,

Thy finger scrolled the message plain.

 

 

 

 

 

Yet, Mighty Word, Thou stopedst low

To faltering lip and feeble hand.

For humble men spake long ago,

Such wisdom as Thy Spirit planned.

 

 

 

 

 

 

1 To profit him that hungereth

With rich delight and doctrine pure,

To quicken love and strengthen faith

And make his heavenly calling sure.
