257. Holy Bible, Book Divine

1 Holy Bible! book divine,
Priceless treasure, thou art mine;
Mine to tell 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 -
Suff'ring 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,
Priceless treasure, thou art mine.
