This is my Word

I am posting another choir selection from the Berean Baptist Church Choir. 
I really enjoy singing this song, and Christine did a really a nice job with the slideshow presentation.  
The words and music were written by Pepper Choplin:
THIS IS MY WORD 
As the snow falls from heaven,
As it comes in swirling showers from the sky, So is my Word.
As the rains bring the water to the earth that is thirsty and dry,
So is my Word.
And the Word of my mouth, it shall not return empty:
It will bless the earth wherever it is heard.
This is my Word.





As the rain brings renewal
And the tender buds begin to come alive,
So is my Word.
Giving seed to the sower,
And the bread to the hungry 'til
they thrive, So is my Word.
And the Word of my mouth, it shall not
return empty;
It will bless the earth wherever it is heard.
This is my Word.
O Lord, when I am weary,
When I fell the days I'm living are in vain,
My God, help me be faithful to the Word You have given to proclaim.
Proclaim the Word, and you will go out in joy,
And be led forth in peace,
And the hills will break before you into song.
So be faithful, brave and true,
For I will go before you,
And when your earthly journey here is done.
I'll say well done, well done!
As the snow falls from heaven,
And the rain comes in showers from the sky,
This is my Word.

    Our choir sang this at the memorial service for our beloved retired pastor, who had dedicated his life to teaching the Word of God. It was simply perfect.
