Example:
This is Your Word to me
The delight of my heart
Delicious in my mouth
And the feast of my mind
Always lighting my path
This is Your Word to me
Healing to my body
And a lamp to my feet
It’s music to my soul
And to me a great treat.
This is Your Word to me
The Road-map to this life
Your love letter to me
Wonderful, marvellous
It’s a boundless decree.
This is Your Word to me
Covenant and Good News
Protection, direction
An anchor to the soul
Assurance, provision
