Hillsong Worship - Your Word Lyrics
Lyrics
Before the earth knew, its foundations
You spoke the dust, into creation
Until the end, when all has withered
Then still Your Word, will endure forever
The lamp unto my feet
The light unto my path
Ohh
Your Word, will not be shaken
Your Word, will never fail me
Like a fire in my bones
Like a whisper to my soul
Your Word, is revelation
Deep calls to deep, within Your presence
When I hear You speak, my soul awakens
Your Spirit leads, my heart to worship
As Your Word reveals, the light of Jesus
The lamp unto my feet
The light unto my path
Ohh
Your Word, will not be shaken
Your Word, will never fail me
Like a fire in my bones
Like a whisper to my soul
Your Word, is revelation
Ohh
Your Word, will not be shaken
Your Word, will never fail me
Like a fire in my bones
Like a whisper to my soul
Your Word, is revelation
Your Word, will not be shaken
Your Word, will never fail me
Like a fire in my bones
Like a whisper to my soul
Your Word, is revelation
Your Word, will never fail me
Like a fire in my bones
Like a whisper to my soul
Your Word, is revelation

Your Word - Hillsong Worship
Meaning & Inspiration
Hillsong Worship's "Your Word," released in 2016 as part of the album *Let There Be Light* (Deluxe), stands as a profound declaration of faith centered on the enduring power and trustworthiness of God's spoken truth. This song isn't merely a collection of beautiful melodies; it's a theological statement, an invitation to anchor our lives in the unshakeable foundation of Scripture. The central message of "Your Word" echoes the psalmist's cry in Psalm 119:105, "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path." It articulates a deep understanding that God’s divine revelation, captured in the Bible, is not a static relic of the past but a living, active force that guides, illuminates, and sustains believers through every season of life. The song powerfully conveys that in a world often characterized by shifting ideologies and uncertain futures, the promises and precepts found within God’s Word remain constant, providing an unyielding anchor for our souls. This steadfastness is directly reflective of biblical affirmations like Hebrews 13:8, which states, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever," implying that the truth He revealed also possesses this eternal quality. The writers have skillfully captured the essence of how God’s Word serves as a source of wisdom and discernment, mirroring the admonition in Proverbs 4:20-22 to "give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart; for they are life to those who find them, and healing to all their flesh." "Your Word" encourages a posture of humility and receptivity, recognizing that encountering God’s truth is an act of surrender and obedience. This resonates with Jesus' own teaching in John 14:21, where He declares, "Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him." The song’s lyrical focus is on the transformative nature of God’s truth, how it shapes our character, strengthens our resolve, and ultimately leads us closer to the heart of God. It’s a call to internalize and live out the principles of faith, finding refuge and strength in the absolute reliability of what God has spoken, a sentiment that underpins the very fabric of Christian belief and practice.
