1. God sent his voice, a mighty voice,
Thro’ holy men of old,
And onward still from heart to heart.
The living echoes rolled.
His Word has guided countless feet
Along the heav’nward way;
The Book that’s stood thro’ ages past,
Is just as true today;
The Book that’s stood thro’ ages past,
Is just as true today;
Chorus:
Just as true today, Hallelujah!
Just as true today, (Hallelujah!)
The Book that’s stood thro’ ages past,
Is just as true today.
2. Unnumbered souls thro’ that blest Word,
In darkness saw a light;
Unnumbered saints, in weakness, found
An overcoming might;
Of all who’ve proved its precious pow’r,
Time faileth us to say—
Elijah, Moses, David, Paul—
‘Tis just as true today;
Elijah, Moses, David, Paul—
‘Tis just as true today.
3. Let doubters scoff, if yet they will,
But in my hour of need,
I’ll take the Book, and bowed in prayer,
A golden promise read.
I’ll clasp my Bible to my breast,
And find salvation’s way;
The Book that’s lived thro’ ages past,
Is just as true today;
The Book that’s lived thro’ ages past,
Is just as true today.
