Author: Franklin D. Barnes Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9169 First Line: The Bible our guide, far more precious than gold Lyrics: 1 The Bible our guide, far more precious than gold,
The half of its glories have never been told;
Its wonderful words for the old and the young,
The grandest e’er spoken by poor mortal tongue.
Refrain:
Far more precious than gold,
More precious than gold,
The wonderful things revealed to us
Are far more precious than gold.
2 The Bible our counsel, reveals precious truth,
Support for the agèd, the guide of our youth;
A comfort by night, and a guide for the day,
And glorious things at the end of the way. [Refrain]
3 Exceeding great promises here do we see,
And they are most precious to you and to me;
The promise that He will be with us alway,
Then we shall be with Him forever to stay. [Refrain]
4 The wonderful things in the Bible contained,
Most heart stirring tidings man ever proclaimed;
The wonderful things of the Bible are true,
And this is the dearest, that Jesus loves you. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [The Bible our guide, far more precious than gold]
