My word shall not return unto me void; but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

Isa. lv. 11.

Far and near, almighty Word,

Spread the knowledge of the Lord;

Far and near extend your leaven,

Where there dwells an heir of heaven.

Word by God the Father sent,

Lord of all, Omnipotent!

Word for sinners’ need supplied,

As their comfort and their guide!

Word of our Redeemer’s grace,
