THEME: The importance of reading and being impacted by the Bible, God's holy scripture, is addressed.
VERSE 1
Your word is a lamp to my feet
And a light for the path that I take
It shows me the wonders of all you have done
Its truth may I never forsake
Lord grant me the discipline this book requires
To seek, then to find what I need
In this scripture of yours, God-breathed, wholly divine
I ask Lord to bless what I read
CHORUS
Bread of heaven, feed me
Till I want no more
Holy Spirit, lead me
From this book of yours
VERSE 2
Grant wisdom and knowledge and love
From the stories and doctrine therein
Revealing the ways that you've acted before
May faith grow, and hope spring within
May I view the world just as you view the world
Then armed with that vision, to pray
From this scripture of yours, God-breathed, wholly divine
May I not just read, but obey
VERSE 3
A thousand excuses abound
As the word is now largely ignored
Yet what can speak more to the need of our times
Than hearing a word from the Lord?
Both living and active it gets to the root
Of all that infects us today
In this scripture of yours, God-breathed, wholly divine
Bring life out of death Lord we pray
