Precious Bible, what a treasure

Hymnal: The Southern Harmony, and Musical Companion (New ed. thoroughly rev. and much enl.) #311 (1854) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. Precious Bible, what a treasure, Does the word of God afford! All I want for life or pleasure, Food or medicine, shield or sword. Let the world account me poor, Having this, I want no more. 2. Food to which the world's a stranger, Here my hungry soul enjoys; Of excess there is no danger, Though it fills, it never cloys. On a dying Christ I feed, He is meat and drink indeed.

Precious Bible! What a Treasure

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5657 Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1. Precious Bible! what a treasure Does the Word of God afford? All I want for life or pleasure, Food and med’cine, shield and sword: Let the world account me poor, Having this I need no more. 2. Food to which the world’s a stranger, Here my hungry soul enjoys; Of excess there is no danger, Though it fills, it never cloys: On a dying Christ I feed, He is meat and drink indeed. 3. When my faith is faint and sickly, Or when Satan wounds my mind, Cordials, to revive me quickly, Healing med’cines here I find: To the promises I flee, Each affords a remedy. 4. In the hour of dark temptation Satan cannot make me yield; For the Word of consolation Is to me a mighty shield While the scripture truths are sure, From his malice I’m secure. 5. Vain his threats to overcome me, When I take the Spirits’ sword; Then with ease I drive him from me. Satan trembles at the word: ’Tis a sword for conquest made, Keen the edge, and strong the blade. 6. Shall I envy then the miser Doting on his golden store? Sure I am, or should be, wiser, I am rich, ’tis he is poor: Jesus gives me in his word, Food and med’cine, shield and sword. Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS OLD
