My Precious Text

Listen from:
VERILY, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth My Word, and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.” John 5:2424Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. (John 5:24).
I love to read God’s holy Word,
And search it more and more,
And always prize that precious verse,
John, Five and Twenty-four.
When. I was lost and dead in sin,
And judgment lay before,
That precious word was sweet to me—
John, Five and Twenty-four.
When I found my lost estate—
Praise God for ever more—
I trusted Jesus through that word—
John, Five and Twenty-four.
That happy night I’ll ne’er forget,
Though sixteen years or more
Are passed and gone since. I believed
John, Five and Twenty-four.
