CAC GHB 457: HOLY BIBLE BOOK DIVINE

MAKE MELODY IN YOUR HEART TO THE LORD

Hymn 457:

Holy Bible, book divine,

Precious treasure, thou art mine;

Mine, to tell me whence i came;

Mine, to teach me what i am.

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.

Mine, to comfort in distress,

If the Holy Spirit bless;

Mine, to show by living faith

Man can triumph over death.

Mine, to tell of joys to come,

Light and life beyond the tomb;

Holy Bible, book divine,

Precious treasure, thou art mine.
