Lyrics
-
1. Oh, holy words of truth and loveWe hear from day to day,Revealed to Saints from God above,To guide in heaven’s way.
-
Beautiful words of loveComing from God above,How sweet, how dear the words we hear!They’re beautiful words of love.
-
2. They’re from Apostles good and true,Whose names we all revere,Who daily teach us what to doIn words of love and cheer.
-
Beautiful words of loveComing from God above,How sweet, how dear the words we hear!They’re beautiful words of love.
-
3. They’re from the prophets God inspires,In counsels oft withstood,Reproving all our ill desires,Commending all that’s good.
-
Beautiful words of loveComing from God above,How sweet, how dear the words we hear!They’re beautiful words of love.
-
4. And from each chosen one that speaksBy aid the Spirit gives,For every sphere of life it seeks,For everyone that lives.
-
Beautiful words of loveComing from God above,How sweet, how dear the words we hear!They’re beautiful words of love.
-
5. As gems of wisdom, pure and bright,That glow with lustrous ray,We’ll seek to gain these words of light,Their counsels to obey.
-
Beautiful words of loveComing from God above,How sweet, how dear the words we hear!They’re beautiful words of love.
