Thy Word Is a Lamp
1.
Thy Word is a lamp to my feet, O Lord, Thy Word is a light to my way; It shines in my soul like a star by night, And comforts and cheers me by day.
2.
Refrain: O wonderful, wonderful Word, My treasure, my hope, and my stay; Each promise recorded delights my soul, And brightens each step of my way.
3.
Thy Word is a lamp to my feet, O Lord, And, trusting in Thee as my all, Whatever of evil may cross my path, I never, no, never can fall. [Refrain]

Thy Word is a lamp to my feet, O Lord, And oh, when Thy glory I see, For all the rich blessings its truth has brought, The praises will I give unto Thee. [Refrain]

ABOUT OUR MINISTRY
We are a non-denominational Bible-believing Christian ministry trained and equipped at the Christian Leaders Institute. Even though our ministry is based on God's Word, the Bible, you need to approach our teachings like the Bereans and always study the Bible yourself to see if what we teach is aligned with what is written in the Bible.
Now the Berean Jews were of more noble character than those in Thessalonica, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true. Acts 17:11 NIV
We are only humans who 'stumble in many ways' (James 3:2) and we only 'know in part and we prophesy in part' (1 Corinthians 13:9).
