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 Saviour's love;
Mine art thou to guide my feet;
Mine to judge, condemn, acquit.
3 Mine to comfort in distress,
If the Holy Spirit bless;
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;
Oh, thou holy Book divine,
Precious treasure, thou art mine.
