 intro

 Holy words long preserved, For our walk in this world

 They resound with God’s own heart, O let the ancient words im--part

 Words of life, Words of hope, Give us strength, Help us cope

 In this world where e’er we roam, Ancient words will guide us home

Chorus

 Ancient words ever true, Changing me and changing you

We have come with open hearts, O let the ancient words im--part

Interlude

 Holy words of our faith, Handed down to this age

 Came to us through sacrifice, O heed the faithful words of Christ

 Holy words long preserved, For our walk in this world

 They resound with God’s own heart, O let the ancient words im--part
