John 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
To receive Christ is to receive His Word. To receive His Word is to receive Him. His words are powerful and wonderful.
Wonderful Words of Life
__________________________
Sing them over again to me, — Wonderful words of life; — Let me more of their beauty see, — Wonderful words of life. — Words of life and beauty — Teach me faith and duty;
CHORUS:
Beautiful words, wonderful words, — Wonderful words of life; — Beautiful words, wonderful words, — Wonderful words of life.
Christ, the blessed One, gives to all — Wonderful words of life; — Sinner, list to the loving call, — Wonderful words of life. — All so freely given, — Wooing us to heaven;
Sweetly echo the Gospel call, — Wonderful words of life; — Offer pardon and peace to all, — Wonderful words of life. — Jesus, only Savior, — Sanctify forever;
Philip B. Bliss 1874
