Precious Bible, Book Divine
Words that lead to your Savior and mine.
Words to guide us through each day,
Comforting words leading to the Life, the Way.

Holy Bible, Letter from our Lord.
Can bring sweet peace, pierce like a sword.
So much love for you and for me,
Leading us to Christ Who set us free.

Precious fountain, a river that flows
From the softest whisper to the tempest that blows.
The words of Christ are written in red.
To show His shed Blood, Crown of Thorns on His Head.

Living, breathing, the Bible is for today.
Through this Word we learn to trust and obey.
Take up your Bible, God's written Gift.
Read it, pray it, and your light will be lit!

Precious Bible, so Divine!
Lead us to Christ, the True Vine!
