1. Hide God’s Word in your heart,
Its precious Truth believe;
At His command
Take from His hand,
The Bread of Life receive.
Refrain:
Hide God’s Word in your heart, (in your heart,)
Hide God’s Word in your heart—
His Word of love
Sent from above,
Hide God’s Word in your heart (in your heart).
2. Hide God’s Word in your heart,
If you would grow in grace,
And like Him be
Until you see
Your Master face to face.
3. Hide God’s Word in your heart,
And seek the Spirit’s pow’r
To understand
Each blest command
He gives from hour to hour.
4. Hide God’s Word in your heart,
And, having hidden well,
Seek out the lost,
The tempest-tossed;
Go forth His love to tell.
5. Hide God’s Word in your heart,
Each day a verse repeat;
Tho’ sin allure,
Success is sure,
You cannot have defeat.
