How Precious Is the Book Divine

Author: John Fawcett Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2599 Refrain First Line: Oh precious book of light and life Lyrics: 1. How precious is the book divine, By inspiration giv’n; Bright as a lamp its pages shine To guide our souls to Heav’n. Its light descending from above, Our gloomy world to cheer, Displays a Savior’s boundless love, And brings His glories near. Refrain Oh precious book of light and life Thou source of truth and love, In Thee we view God’s matchless grace, And all His goodness prove, Oh precious book whose light e’er shines With bright and cheering ray, To guide our souls until the dawn Of the eternal day. 2. It shows to man his wand’ring ways, And where his feet have trod; And brings to view the matchless grace Of a forgiving God. O’er all the straight and narrow way Its radiant beams are cast; A light whose never weary ray Grows brightest at the last. [Refrain] 3. It sweetly cheers our fainting hearts In this dark vale of tears; Life, light and joy it still imparts, And quells our rising fears. This lamp, through all the tedious night Of life, shall guide our way, Till we behold the clearer light Of an eternal day. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: WALDER
