Composer:Broster

21. My Bible! my Bible! 'tis a book divine

1 My Bible! my Bible! 'tis a book divine,
Where heavenly truth and mercy shine,
And wisdom speaks in every line,
And speaks to me,
And speaks to me.

2 My Bible! in this book alone
I find God's holy will made known;
And here his love to man is shown--
His love to me.

3 My Bible! here with joy I trace
The records of redeeming grace;
Glad tidings to a sinful race;
Good news to me.

4 My Bible! here it is I read
How Jesus did for sinners bleed;
Oh, this was wondrous love indeed!
Christ bled for me.

5 My Bible! oh, that I may ne'er
Consult it but with faith and prayer
That I may see my Saviour there,
Who died for me!
