Ancient words ever true
Changing me and changing you
We have come with open hearts
O let the ancient words impart
We have come with open hearts
O let the ancient words impart
Lord we confess that we have wandered
Far from Your purpose and plan
And willingly walked in the wrong direction
We've disobeyed Your commands
Father forgive us, Spirit come lead us
Back to the way, back to the truth
Back to the foot of the cross
Show us the ancient paths
Lead us along eternal highways
We want to walk in the ways of Jesus
We want to enter Your rest
Lord it's Your mercy and good intention
That constantly calls us to You
Your infinite patience and kind correction
Your covenant love coming through
You are our hope and our salvation
You promise joy, You give us grace
And courage to carry the cross
Show us the ancient paths
Lead us along eternal highways
We want to walk in the ways of Jesus
We want to enter Your rest
We want to leave a clear set of footprints
For those who will follow behind
Signposts in our lives that point to Jesus
A pathway they'll easily find
We want to fill up the suff'rings of Jesus
As we obey our lives display
The glorious way of the cross
Show us the ancient paths
Lead us along eternal highways
We want to walk in the ways of Jesus
We want to enter Your rest
Show us the ancient paths
Lead us along eternal highways
We want to walk in the ways of Jesus
We want to enter Your rest
Ancient words ever true
Changing me and changing you
We have come with open hearts
O let the ancient words impart
We have come with open hearts
O let the ancient words impart
