Kingdom Heirs - Lord, Your Word Is Still True Lyrics
Lyrics
Verse 1
Though words can be spoken, vows can be broken
When those you once trusted let you down
Faith can be shaken, confidence mistaken
When few faithful friends can be found
But I have a treasure?peace beyond all measure
Lord, my faith everyday You renew
I know whatever you do? Your Word is still true
Verse 2
Before I believed it?. I just couldn't see it
When Christians put their troubles in God's hands
Stormy winds were blowing, but they had joy in knowing
The sun would shine once again
So I learned a lesson?no heartache no depression
Can defeat me when storm clouds break through
Lord, You'll do what You said You would do
Your Word is true
Chorus
Lord, when You saved me?the promises You gave me
Sustained me?and I know they are still mine
For it's settled in Heaven, Your Word lives forever
Never changed by the passing of time
So whether you're blessing, or whether you're testing my faith
I'll still trust You
Though the world falls around me?.
Lord, Your Word is still true

Lord, Your Word Is Still True
Meaning & Inspiration
Kingdom Heirs' "Lord, Your Word Is Still True," released on April 16, 2007, as part of their album *True to the Call*, stands as a powerful testament to the enduring faithfulness of God amidst life's inevitable trials. This song resonates deeply by acknowledging the human experience of broken trust and wavering confidence. The opening verses paint a stark, relatable picture of how spoken words and vows can crumble, leaving individuals feeling let down by those they once relied upon. It speaks to the vulnerability of faith when faced with the sting of disappointment and the scarcity of steadfast companions. Yet, within this honest depiction of struggle, the song immediately pivots to a source of unwavering hope: "peace beyond all measure" found in God's renewing presence. This isn't a superficial optimism; it's a profound assurance rooted in the understanding that no matter what transpires, God's spoken promises remain unshaken.
The narrative continues by reflecting on a personal journey of discovery, moving from skepticism to a profound understanding of placing troubles in God's hands. The imagery of stormy winds gives way to the quiet joy found in knowing that even through adversity, the sun will eventually shine. This transformative lesson is the heart of the song's message: that heartache and depression cannot overcome those who grasp this truth. The lyrics declare that God will invariably fulfill His promises, reinforcing the central theme of His reliable Word. This resonates with biblical teachings found in passages like Jeremiah 1:12, which states, "The Lord said to me, 'You have seen correctly, for I am watching to see that my word is fulfilled.'"
The chorus elevates this assurance to a divine certainty. It recalls the salvific moment when God's promises became personal, sustaining the believer. The powerful declaration that these promises are "settled in Heaven" and that God's Word "lives forever" echoes Psalm 119:89, "Your word, Lord, is eternal; it stands forever in the heavens." This immutability is emphasized regardless of whether life brings blessings or tests of faith. The song’s concluding plea, "Though the world falls around me... Lord, Your Word is still true," is an anthem of unwavering trust. It's a profound acknowledgment that in a world prone to chaos and change, the unchanging nature of God's promises provides an unshakeable foundation. This unwavering reliance is a hallmark of biblical faith, exemplified by Hebrews 13:8, which states, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." "Lord, Your Word Is Still True" encourages listeners to anchor their hope not in fleeting human circumstances, but in the eternal, unchangeable truth of God's character and His unfailing Word.
