"And they were all amazed, and spake among themselves, saying, What a word is this! For with authority and power He commandeth the unclean spirits, and they come out" (Luke 4:36).
What a Word our Lord commands
With power and authority!
My heart in awe and wonder stands
At what His Word has done for me!
What a Word our Lord has shown
Displayed in all of His creation!
Oh what mercies He makes known
In the Word of His salvation!
What a Word our Lord has spoken
Though He is high and lifted up,
Inviting contrite spirits broken
To come and dine and with Him sup.
What a Word from heaven came
To manifest His truth and grace!
Upon the cross He bore our shame
To take the guilty sinner's place!
What a Word we find in Christ!
Lord, we stand in awe amazed:
The Word made flesh was sacrificed;
May Jesus Christ our Lord be praised!
