Cling to the Bible
Christian Song Lyrics
cling to the bible, though all else be taken;
lose not its precepts, so precious and pure;
souls that are sleeping its tidings awaken;
life from the dead in its promises sure.
refrain
cling to the bible!
cling to the bible!
cling to the bible—
our lamp and our guide!
cling to the bible! this jewel and treasure
brings life eternal, and saves fallen man;
surely its value no mortal can measure:
seek for its blessing, o soul, while you can!
refrain
lamp for the feet that in byways have wandered,
guide for the youth that would otherwise fall;
hope for the sinner whose life has been squandered,
staff for the agèd, and best book of all.
refrain
