I am standing on the Word of God,
Which came to men of old;
The Holy Book our fathers loved,
And treasured more than gold.

Refrain

I am standing, standing on the Word,
Though the earth change and decay,
It shall never, never pass away,
I am standing on the Word of God.

I am standing on the Word of God,
�Tis holy and �tis true;
Through ages it has been our light,
With splendor ever new.

Refrain

I am standing on the Word of God,
�Tis full of life divine;
God�s Spirit lives in ev�ry word,
And moves in ev�ry line.

Refrain

I am standing on the Word of God,
And thus I am secure;
Though blows the tempest wild and hard,
�Twill evermore endure.

Refrain

I am standing on the Word of God,
And on my dying bed
I�ll share its consolations, Lord,
When death�s dark vale I tread.
