The Word Is So Near (The Beginning Album Version)

The word is so near to your heart and your tongue

With the one you confess and acknowledge the Son

With the other believe and are justified

And find life in knowing it was for you, He died

No, it's not up in heaven where your thoughts could not reach

Nor beyond the ocean, on some distant beach

No, the word is so near in the innermost part

It's alive on your lips, it abides in your heart

The word is so near to your heart and your tongue

With the one you confess and acknowledge the Son

With the other believe and are justified

And find life in knowing it was for you, He died
