Our Great Redeemer's Praise ‎#427

427. Holy Bible, Book Divine

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 stray,
mine to show a Savior's way;
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,
we can triumph over death.

4 Mine to tell of joys to come,
and the rebel sinner's doom;
Holy Bible, book divine,
precious treasure, thou art mine.
