253. Holy Bible, Book Divine

1 Holy Bible, Book divine,
Precious treasure, thou art mine:
Mine to tell me whence I came,
Mine to teach me what I am;

2 Mine to chide me when I rove,
Mine to show a Savior's love,
Mine thou art to guide and guard,
Mine to punish or reward,

3 Mine to comfort in distress--
Suffering in this wilderness,
Mine to show--by living faith--
Man can triumph over death,

4 Mine to tell of joys to come,
And the rebel sinner's doom:
O thou holy Book divine,
Precious treasure, thou art mine.
