Precious Bible! What A Treasure
Does The Word Of God Afford?
All I Want For Life Or Pleasure,
Food And Medicine, Shield And Sword:
Let The World Account Me Poor,
Having This I Need No More.
Food To Which The World’s A Stranger,
Here My Hungry Soul Enjoys;
Of Excess There Is No Danger,
Though It Fills, It Never Cloys:
On A Dying Christ I Feed,
He Is Meat And Drink Indeed.
When My Faith Is Faint And Sickly,
Or When Satan Wounds My Mind,
Cordials, To Revive Me Quickly,
Healing Medicines Here I Find:
To The Promises I Flee,
Each Affords A Remedy.
In The Hour Of Dark Temptation
Satan Cannot Make Me Yield;
For The Word Of Consolation
Is To Me A Mighty Shield
While The Scripture Truths Are Sure,
From His Malice I’m Secure.
Vain His Threats To Overcome Me,
When I Take The Spirits’ Sword;
Then With Ease I Drive Him From Me.
Satan Trembles At The Word:
‘Tis A Sword For Conquest Made,
Keen The Edge, And Strong The Blade.
Shall I Envy Then The Miser
Doting On His Golden Store?
Sure I Am, Or Should Be, Wiser,
I Am Rich, ‘Tis He Is Poor:
Jesus Gives Me In His Word,
Food And Med’cine, Shield And Sword.
