83. THY WORD HAVE I HID IN MY HEART

1. Thy Word is a lamp to my feet,

A light to my path always;

To guide and to save me from sin,

And show me the heavenly way.

Thy word have I hid in my heart

That I might not sin against Thee,..

That I might not sin, that I might not sin

Thy word have I hid in my heart.

2. Forever, O Lord, is Thy word

Established and fixed on high;

Thy faithful unto all men

Abideth forever nigh.

3. At morning, at noon and at night

I ever will give Thee praise;

For Thou art my portion, O Lord,

And shall be through all my days!

4. Thro’ Him whom Thy word hath foretold,

The Saviour and Morning Star;

Salvation and peace have been bro’t

To those who have strayed afar.

GOSPEL REALM: STEPS TO SALVATION
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
