Mother And The Book Of God

Author: E. C. Baird Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16053 First Line: From the by­gone days of child­hood Refrain First Line: Mother and the Book of God! Lyrics: 1 From the by­gone days of child­hood Comes a pic­ture quaint and rare— One of beau­ty, and so ve­ry dear to me; ’Tis a pic­ture of my mo­ther Sitting in her old arm­chair, With the o­pen Bi­ble rest­ing on her knee. Refrain: Mother and the Book of God! ’Twas to her both staff and rod; And when in dreams her love­ly face I see, God’s op­en book is al­ways on her knee. 2 As she soft­ly turned its pag­es, How her gent­le face would glow! And her heart from all the cares of life seemed free, As she read each pre­cious pro­mise, Full of bless­ed­ness to know, From the op­en Bible rest­ing on her knee. [Refrain] 3 When I hear the world’s voice call­ing, When my feet would go astray, All the dark de­ceit­ful things are made to flee, When I think of my dear mo­ther As she sat to read and pray, With the op­en Bi­ble rest­ing on her knee. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [From the by­gone days of child­hood]
