About this Hymn
This hymn of illumination for children helps us to mark out the process of what it means to meditate on God's word—to hear, to believe, to trust, to obey, to walk in it every day. The lyrics carry words of fatherly instruction that all of us might turn toward our heavenly Father, who speaks to us! His greatest and most beautiful Word to us is his Son, the Lord Jesus, our Savior and the one to whom all the Scriptures point.
