LyicsMy Bible 'tis a book divine,
Where heavenly truth and mercy shine,
And wisdom speaks in ev'ry line,
And speaks to me.
My Bible in this book I trace
The records of redeeming grace;
Glad tidings to a sinful race,
Good news to me.
My Bible, source of comfort pure,
To those who trials here endure;
The hope of heaven it renders sure,
Best hope for me.
I love my bible, may I ne'er
Consult it, but with faith and prayer,
That I may see my Savior there
Who died for me.
