Words: , 2004 (re­leased in­to the pub­lic do­main):

The Hymn ”Your word is a lamp for my feet” was writ­ten on Sa­tur­day 24th July 2004 for an ev­en­ing ser­vice to the fol­low­ing day. The Pas­tor had just re­turned from hol­i­day, and wished to use these pass­ag­es as his text next ev­en­ing. Find­ing it dif­fi­cult to choose hymns for the ser­vice, I par­a­phrased the read­ings to pro­duce this short hymn, then wrote the tune “Home­com­ing” to fit the words. It was fin­ished off on the Sun­day af­ter­noon, played at sight by the wor­ship group at the ser­vice, and sung suc­cess­ful­ly at first time of hear­ing by a small con­gre­ga­tion.

Your Word is a lamp for my feet, and a light for my pathway.
I will hide Your Word in my heart, and meditate on it each day.
Your Word has the power to give wisdom;
It’s a teacher, the equal of none;
I have sought and found truth in Your teaching
Of Salvation through Jesus, Your Son.

Your Word is a lamp for my feet, and a light for my pathway.
I will hide Your Word in my heart, and meditate on it each day.
All scripture by God is inspirèd;
It rebukes us when we go astray,
It is useful for teaching, correcting,
And to train us for living God’s way.
