LEAD US IN YOUR TRUTH

Lyrics

Verse 1
God of earth and heaven
Maker of mankind
You spoke creation into life
Your word at the beginning
Breaking through the dark
You wrote your law upon our hearts

Chorus
Lead us in your truth God
Teach us of your grace
Change us by your Spirit to live for you
Fill us with your love Lord
Guide us in your ways
The words you speak
Are faithful and ever true
Help us live for you

Verse 2
Came to dwell among us
From the Father’s side
The glory of our saviour Christ
Author of salvation
Full of truth and grace
You speak the words of lasting life

Verse 3
The grass will fade and wither
Flowers wilt and fall
Your word endures forevermore
Your promises unchanging
Your wisdom never fails
Calling us to stand by faith

Sample Introduction

The world tells us that truth is relative, but the bible tells us that ultimate truth comes from God, in his Word, by his Spirit. So let this song be our prayer, that God would continue to guide us by his Word to live for him.
