Verse 2: 
Holy words of our faith  
Handed down to this age  
Came to us through sacrifice  
O heed the faithful words of Christ  
Holy words long preserved  
For our walk in this world  
They resound with God's own heart  
O let the ancient words impart  
(Chorus)

participation purposes we have dropped it to E.)
