 Intro | | | | |

Looking out from His throne, the Father of light and of men

Chose to make Himself known and show us the way back to Him

Speaking wisdom and truth into the hearts of peasants and kings

He began to unveil the Word that would change the course of all things

 With eyes wide open, all would see

Ref:

 The Word is alive

 And it cuts like a sword through the darkness

 With a message of life to the hopeless and afraid

 Breathing life into all who believe

 The Word is alive

 And the world and its glories will fade

 But His truth, it will not pass away

 It remains yesterday and forever the same

 The Word is alive

Simple strokes on a page, eternity's secrets revealed

 carried on from age to age, speaks Truth to us even still

And as the rain falls from Heaven, feeds the earth before it returns

 Oh Lord, let Your Word fall on us and bring forth the fruit You deserve

 With eyes wide open, let us see

 Ref, then: The Word is alive
