How Blest Are They Who Hear God's Word

Author: Johan N. Brun; Oluf H. Smeby Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2190 Lyrics: 1. How blest are they who hear God’s Word And keep and heed what they have heard! They wisdom daily gather; Their light shines brighter day by day, And while they tread life’s weary way, They have the oil of gladness To soothe their pain and sadness. 2. God’s Word a treasure is to me, Through sorrow’s night my sun shall be, The shield of faith in battle. The Father’s hand hath written there My title as His child and heir, The kingdom’s thine forever. That promise faileth never. 3. Today I was my Savior’s guest, My soul was here so richly blest, The Bread of Life receiving. Oh, may thereby my faith prevail, So that its fruits shall never fail Till my account is given Before the throne in Heaven! Languages: English Tune Title: MIN SJÄL OG AAND
