Author: John Burton, 1773-1822 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #205 (2011) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Holy Bible, book divine,
Precious treasure, thou art mine;
Mine to tell me whence I came,
Mine to teach me what I am:
2 Mine to chide me when I rove;
Mine to show a Savior's love;
Mine thou art to guide and guard;
Mine to punish or reward;
3 Mine to comfort in distress,
Suffering in this wilderness;
Mine to show by living faith,
Man can triumph over death;
4 Mine to tell of joys to come,
And the rebel sinner's doom;
O thou holy book divine,
Precious treasure, thou art mine. Topics: The Holy Scriptures; Holy Scripture; Holy Scripture; Holy Spirit; Youth Scripture: Psalm 23 Languages: English Tune Title: ALETTA
