Thank God For The Bible
"Thank God for the Bible,
"Tis there that we find
The story of Christ and his love,
How he came down to earth from his beautiful home
In the mansions of glory above.
Thanks to him we will bring,
Praise to him we will sing,
For he came down to earth from his beautiful home
In the mansions of glory above.
"While he lived on this earth,
To the sick and the blind
And to mourners his blessings were given;
And he said, Let the little ones come unto me,
For of such is the kingdom of Heaven.
Thanks to him we will bring,
Praise to him we will sing,
For he said, Let the little ones come unto me,
For of such is the kingdom of Heaven.
"Thank God for the Bible;
Its truth o'er the earth
We will scatter with bountiful hand;
But we never can tell what a Bible is worth,
'Till we go to that beautiful land.
There our thanks we will bring,
There with angels we'll sing;
But we never can tell what a Bible is worth
'Till we go to that beautiful land."
