Lyrics:
O the word of my Lord, deep within my being,
O the word of my Lord, you have filled my mind.
Before I formed you in the womb
I knew you through and through,
I chose you to be mine.
Before you left your mother’s side
I called to you, my child, to be my sign.
I know that you are very young,
but I will make you strong
I’ll fill you with my word;
And you will travel through the land,
fulfilling my command which you have heard.
And everywhere you are to go
my hand will follow you;
you will not be alone.
In all the danger that you fear
you’ll find me very near,
your word's my own.

Today the parish priest announced that our Pope Francis declared that the 3rd Sunday in January will be celebrated as the feast of Word of God Sunday throughout the world. I had the privilege to proclaim the Word Of God in the 1st reading. It was about the people of Nineveh turned to the Lord when Jonah gave them the warning that there are yet 40 days to turn to the Lord or the city will be destroyed. They all fasted and prayed and the Lord saved them.
I felt Lord pouring grace on me to proclaim the Word. This... your beautiful song came to my mind. I came home and played it and I love the way you sing, it is a meditation. Thank you.

Such a lovely comment. Thank you very much. May God bless you in your ministry of the Word. 🙏

I am so happy to hear that this has been sung correctly. Many people who sing this hymn forget that it is only on the final chorus that the final note (mind) remains on the tonic (D) in all other choruses the final note goes up a third (F#) as you have sung here. Well done and many congratulations.

Thanks Cathy. Yes, we did slow it down a little to reflect further on the words… but we’ve picked up the tempo a little too when we sing it live. Have a great week ahead. 🙏
