O Precious Bible! Burning Words From Heaven,
We’ll Ever Cherish Thee In Our Heart;
Sweet Is The Counsel By Thy Pages Given:
On Life’s Dark Ocean, Our Only Chart.

Blessed Bible! Blessed Bible!
Joyful Tidings From Our Home;
Thou Art The Rock Of Everlasting Ages;
Hope Of Eternal Bliss At Heaven’s Throne.

O Precious Volume! Only In Thy Pages
We Read The Duty Of All Our Race;
Only Thy Sunbeams, Shining Through The Ages,
Reveal The Wonders Of Saving Grace.

This Book Of Heaven Shall Endure Forever;
And From Its Wisdom We’ll Never Turn;
Weighed In Its Balance, All The Creeds That Sever
Are Only Stubble, Ere Long To Burn.

Dear Book Of Mercy, On Thy Sure Foundation
We Build A Dwelling-Place For Our Soul;
Hearing And Doing All Thy Revelation,
It Stands Unshaken, Though Billows Roll.
