These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Cuarteto: "Wondrous Word"

Wonderful the Word of Life in ev'ry way,
The Master, Who has made the world in His Grace
would never leave it running for e'en one day
without His tender care and full-smiling Face.

Wondrous Word, the Living Lord, Who died for me
was laid upon a borrowed slab a day's rest
and rose the third day, showing salvation free,
that all who will may come to Him and be blest.

Oh, Wondrous Word of Life, who does all things well,
I thank You for this Gift with God to have peace.
My dear desire is that His Truth I may tell.
Redeemed souls may know His wondrous, sweet release.
