Stirring arrangement of O Precious Bible! perfect for

1. O precious Bible! burning words from Heaven,
We’ll ever cherish thee in our heart:
Sweet is the counsel by thy pages given;
On life’s dark ocean our only chart.
2. O precious volume! only in thy pages
We read the duty of all our race;
Only thy sunbeams, shining thro’ the ages,
Revel the wonders of saving grace.
3. This Book of Heaven shall endure forever,
And from its wisdom we’ll never turn;
Weighed in its balance, all the creeds that sever
Are only stubble, ere long to burn.
4. Dear Book of mercy, on thy sure foundation
We build a dwelling-place for the soul,
Hearing and doing all thy revelation:
It stands unshaken, though billows roll.
Chorus: Blessed Bible! blessed Bible!
Joyful tidings from our home!
Thou art the rock of everlasting ages;
Hope of eternal bliss at Heaven’s throne.
