  			1st verse 
Em                      G                       D         Am 
Looking out from His throne, the Father of light and of men 
Em                     G                     D              Am 
Chose to make Himself known and show us the way back to Him 
C                                              D             Am 
Speaking wisdom and truth into the hearts of peasants and kings 
Em                      G                   D                 Am 
He began to unveil the Word that would change the course of all things 
Em                              D 
With eyes wide open, all would see 
   Chorus 
           Em 
The Word is alive 
                                         D 
And it cuts like a sword through the darkness 
             C                  G 
With a message of life to the hopeless and afraid 
         C                             D 
Breathing life into all who believe 
                 Em 
The Word is alive 
        G                          D 
And the world and its glories will fade 
        Em            G         C 
But His truth, it will not pass away 
    G            C                  D 
It remains yesterday and forever the same 
   Em7                D   Ddim   Dsus 
The Word is alive 
2nd verse 

   Em 
               G 
Simple strokes on a page 
  D                   Am            C                 G 
Eternity’s secrets revealed, carried on from age to age 
     D                            Am 
It speaks truth to us even still 
  Em                            G                           D 
And as the rain falls from Heaven, feeds the earth before it returns 
C                            G           D                     
Am 
Lord, let Your Word fall on us and bring forth the fruit You deserve 
     Em               D 
With eyes wide open, let us see
