LyicsHoly Bible! book divine!
Precious treasure! thou art mine;
Mine to tell me whence I came;
Mine to teach me what I am;
Mine to chide me when I rove;
Mine to show a Saviour's love;
Mine thou art to guide and guard;
Mine to punish or reward;
Mine to comfort in distress,
Suffering in this wilderness;
Mine to show, by living faith,
Man can triumph over death;
Mine to tell of joys to come,
And the rebel sinner's doom:
O thou holy book divine!
Precious treasure, thou art mine!
