Christian Hymns ‎#107

107. There's A Book

1 There’s a book which surpasses the sages,
A volume of wisdom divine;
And the glory that gleams from its pages,
No splendor of earth can outshine.

Chorus:
'Tis the Bible! the Bible!
Our guiding star that leads from earth to heav'n,
The Bible! the Bible!
We love the precious Book of Truth which God has giv'n.

2 ’Tis the light which will guide us to glory,
The Sword of the Spirit of might;
And to dwell on its beautiful story,
Is of heaven the sweetest delight. [Chorus]

3 It reveals where the fountain is flowing,
Which washes the soul from its stain;
Age and sorrow are comforted, knowing
With earth they shall part with their pain. [Chorus]
