Preciousness of the Scriptures.

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 Saviors s love; Mine thou art to guide and guard; Mine to punish or reward;

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, And the rebel sinner's doom; O thou holy book divine, Precious treasure, thou art mine.
