Carried Along


For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
2 Peter 1:21

You spoke to us
through people like us
to bring the truth to us
revealing Yourself among us
as Your Spirit carried them along

And we heard Your Word
You called us to believe Your Word
although we often rejected Your Word
prophets kept right on proclaiming Your Word
as Your Spirit carried them along

Your Word should be precious
we did not let the truth change us
but fought against what You gave to us
so You sent the Living Word: Jesus
and a new gospel was carried along

Jesus spoke words of life
He lived so we could know true life
He died to give eternal life
apostles testified to this great life
with words Your Spirit carried along

So I will trust in the Living Word
I will open, read, and believe Your Word
I will seek to understand all of Your Word
I will let this gospel be my most treasured word
because Your Spirit carried it along
