Your Word is a Lamp

I love when artists say things so profoundly well that I have nothing to add. Take Charlie Hall and his new song, Lamp:


The flowers will fade in their beauty
But Your word travels faithful and true
My hands on the pulse, I am listening
And the words come to life and they bloom

Oh, Your Word is a lamp to my path
Oh, Your Word is a lamp to my path

Let the power of Your words dwell here richly
Changing the ways that I see
Fill me with otherly wisdom
Plant me deep like a tree by the stream

Oh, Your Word is a lamp to my path
Oh, Your Word is a lamp to my path

I don't put my hope in my wishes
I hang on Your promises true
Your Word's like a sword searching all of my heart
Dividing the lies from the truth
