Beauty of the Book

"This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success" (Joshua 1:8). "Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed thereto according to Thy word.... Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against Thee" (Psalm 119:9,11). "But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves" (James 1:22).

The beauty of God's Book is seen
In that its words are true,
Yet also that it makes us clean
When what we hear, we do.
