When I hear the Word of God
Sometimes it sounds so good
I’d like to make a Bible sandwich
And eat it if I could
I heard Your Word
And I’ve eaten it eaten it
I’ve eaten it
I’ve heard Your Word
And I’ve eaten it
And put it down in my heart
I heard Your Word
And I treasured it treasured it
I’ve treasured it
I heard Your Word
And I treasured it and
Put it down in my heart
I heard Your Word and
I’ve hidden it hidden it
I’ve hidden it
I heard Your Word
And I’ve hidden it
And put it down in my heart
I heard Your Word and
I did it did it I did it
I heard Your Word and
I did it and put it
Down in my heart
His praise shall continually
Be in my mouth
His praise shall continually
Be in my mouth
Bless the Lord
