120a. God's Own Book.

1 God's own Book of love is mine,
Blessed storehouse, rich, divine;
Book of wisdom, Book of truth,
Hope of age and guide of youth.

Chorus:
Mine, mine, Book divine,
Precious treausre, thou art mine.
Book of wisdom, Book of truth,
Hope of age and guide of youth.

2 Here the way of life is shown,
Here the Master's will made known;
Ev'ry word His truths embrace,
Ev'ry page reveals His grace. [Chorus]

3 Blessed Book, of all the best!
By its pages I am blest;
Lighthouse, shining o'er the sea,
Leading, guiding, keeping me. [Chorus]
