482 Those Who Cherish God’s Word Are Blessed
Verse 1
Those willing to accept God’s watching
are those who pursue knowledge of God.
They are willing to accept God’s words.
They’ll gain God’s inheritance and blessings.
These are the ones who are the most blessed.
God curses those with no place for Him.
He chastises and abandons them.
Chorus
If you cherish all God’s work,
cherish His enlightenment,
if you cherish God’s presence,
and cherish His protection,
if you cherish all God’s words
as your own reality and as your life provision,
then you’re most after God’s heart.
If you cherish all God’s work on you,
He’ll bless you, what’s yours will multiply.
Verse 2
God works in those who pursue His words,
and He works in those who cherish them.
The more you treasure them, the more He works.
The more a person treasures God’s word,
the greater their chance of perfection.
God perfects those who truly love Him,
those whose hearts are at peace before Him.
Chorus
If you cherish all God’s work,
cherish His enlightenment,
if you cherish God’s presence,
and cherish His protection,
if you cherish all God’s words
as your own reality and as your life provision,
then you’re most after God’s heart.
If you cherish all God’s work on you,
He’ll bless you, what’s yours will multiply.
Bridge
Strive to make God’s words your reality,
satisfy Him, be after His heart.
Don’t merely strive to enjoy His grace.
Receive God’s work and gain perfection,
become one who carries out His will.
Nothing is more important than this.
Chorus
If you cherish all God’s work,
cherish His enlightenment,
if you cherish God’s presence,
and cherish His protection,
if you cherish all God’s words
as your own reality and as your life provision,
then you’re most after God’s heart.
If you cherish all God’s work on you,
He’ll bless you, what’s yours will multiply.
