Some time ago, a friend asked me to write a song that speaks of our eagerness to grow in God’s Word. To absorb its truths and to prosper in its wisdom should be the desires of every believer. It is both a privilege and a blessing to open it with our hands, speak it with our lips, and let it dwell within our hearts.
GROW YOUR WORDS IN ME

Make of me Your humble servant
Draw me to Your precious Word
Teach me knowledge, good discernment
I delight to know and learn
Your holy Word
My heart’s desire
Let me be a faithful steward
Grow Your Word in me
Like a fountain flowing freely
Wash my tender heart with truth
With a passion growing deeply
Your commands, my life, my food
Your holy Word
My heart’s desire
Like a stream that never ceases
Grow Your Word in me
In Your law my life is founded
In its comfort I find rest
In its path my feet are grounded
In its goodness I am blessed
Your holy Word
My heart’s desire
In its wisdom let me prosper
Grow Your Word in me
Such reward I find in Your ways
Righteousness is now my own
Such a treasure for all my days
Till I bend before the throne
Your holy Word
My heart’s desire
On this earth and for Your kingdom
Grow Your Word in me
