Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #VIII (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: How precious is the book divine Lyrics: 1 How precious is the book divine,
By inspiration giv'n!
Bright as a lamp, its doctrines shine
To guide our souls to heav'n.
2 It sweetly cheers our drooping hearts
In this dark vale of tears;
Life, light, and joy, it still imparts,
And quells our rising fears.
3 This lamp, thro' all the tedious night
Of life, shall guide our way,
Till we behold the clearer light
Of an eternal day. Topics: The Scriptures, Legal, Prophetic, and Evangelical, collectively testify of the Savior Scripture: John 5:39 Languages: English
