To God Who Gave the Scriptures
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Luke 24:13-35 Lyrics: 1 To God who gave the scriptures
we bring our thanks today
for light upon life's journey,
a lamp to lead the way;
a sword to face the tempter,
a seed of life divine,
a glimpse of heaven's glory
upon our souls to shine.
2 To God who gave the scriptures
we sing salvation songs,
for laws of truth and judgment
to right our human wrongs;
a word to stand forever,
which faith and light impart,
a fire of love unchanging
to burn within our hearts.
3 To God who gave the scriptures
we come with love and praise
for all the gospel stories
of Galilean days,
the words of grace and mercy,
the cross and all its pains
as now in risen splendor
the King of glory reigns.
4 To God who gave the scriptures
we turn in faith to find
a taste of honeyed sweetness
to nourish heart and mind;
the promise of salvation,
the covenant restored,
the apostolic witness
that Jesus is the Lord.
5 To God who gave the scriptures
we lift our souls in prayer,
for eyes the Spirit opens
to find the treasures there;
that as we read and ponder
one voice alone is heard,
the Christ of all the scriptures,
the true and living Word.
