Thy Word is Like a Garden, Lord

 Thy Word is Like a Garden, Lord

By: Edwin Hodder

Thy Word is like a garden, Lord, with flowers bright and fair, 

And everyone who seeks may pluck a lovely cluster there. 

Thy Word is like a deep, deep mine; and jewels rich and rare 

are hidden in its mighty depths for every searcher there.

Thy Word is like a starry host: a thousand rays of light

are seen to guide the traveler and make his pathway bright. 

Thy Word is like an armory, where soldiers may repair;
And find, for life's long battle day, all needful weapons there. 

 

Oh, may I love Thy precious Word, may I explore the mine, 

may I its fragrant flowers glean, may light upon me shine!

Oh, may I find my armor there! Thy Word my trusty sword,

I'll learn to fight with every foe the battle of the Lord.

Matthew 6:28

And why take ye thought for rainment? Consider the lilies of the field,

how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:

Psalms 119:140
Thy word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it.

Psalms 119:127
Therefore I love thy commandments above gold; yea, above
fine gold.
