The Living Word

mp3 Leadsheet PowerPoint

v.1
There’s a Word that offers healing
A Word of joy
A Word of life
A Word in sorrow
A Word revealing
The Living Word, Jesus Christ

(Chorus)
You were there in the beginning
When You spoke the worlds became
Then becoming flesh You set aside Your fame.
By Your word You laid Your life down
Conquered death to rise and reign
And with eyes of flaming fire You’ll come again,
The Living Word

v.2
There’s a Word that values justice
A Word of peace
A Word of might
A Word of vengeance
A Word of solace
The Living Word, Jesus Christ

v.3
There’s a Word that tells the story
A Word of hope
A Word of light
A Word of heaven
A Word of glory
The Living Word, Jesus Christ

(Turnaround)
The Living Word… Jesus Christ (4x)

  1. Hey, this song is fantastic… I don’t suppose you have the piano score that I could buy so I could introduce this at my church? If not, can you get that written up :)

  2. Kirk,
    Thanks for your comments. The song was originally done with guitar and I don’t have a piano score. If I ever put one together I’ll make sure it gets posted here.

  3. Hey Marc – just wanted you to know that our fellowship group of young adults is trying to learn this song together. It is a wonderful song, and we are so thankful for the chance to sing it. Blessings to you brother!
    in Christ,
    Kim (and the SixTen Fellowship Group – name based on Hebrews 6:10)

  4. Thanks Kim!

    "Is that dirge they're playing one of yours Heinrich? It's not too bad." (on hearing the worship team run Only Jesus)

    "Marc is a very funny guy and a good friend. But neither of those reasons tell you why I appreciate his songs. Marc uses language and music in a creative way to express genuine struggles and joys in light of a sovereign, gracious Redeemer."
