Word

Your word endures forever
What does that mean for my life
It means you are not silent
Across the vast expanse of the universe
From the dark recesses of infinity
You speak

I am not left to wonder
Who you are and what you are like
I am not left to wonder 
What you command
Or how you 
Designed life

I have your word
I can hide it in my heart
I can talk about it on the 
Highways and byways of life
I delight in it
Making it my highest joy 

You have made us
People of the word
You have made us literate
Given us the gift of language
The gift of the word
To make us human

With your word
You spoke light 
Into the dark chaos
With your word
You spoke from the cross
It is finished

Blessed be your word
That never changes
Your word that
Guides, directs, challenges, and corrects
Your word that gives life
Your word that endures forever
