Holy words long preserved For our walk in this world, They resound with God’s own heart. Oh let the ancient words impart. Words of Life, words of Hope Give us strength, help us cope In this world, where e’er we roam Ancient words will guide us Home. CHORUS: Ancient words ever true Changing me and changing you, We have come with open hearts Oh let the ancient words impart. Holy words of our Faith Handed down to this age Came to us through sacrifice Oh heed the faithful words of Christ. Holy words long preserved For our walk in this world. They resound with God’s own heart Oh let the ancient words impart. CHORUS  Martyr's blood stains each page They have died for this faith Hear them cry through the years Heed these words and hold them dear CHORUS Ancient Words lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group, Capitol Christian Music Group
