Lyrics
How precious is the Book divine,
By inspiration giv'n!
Bright as a lamp its doctrines shine,
To guide our souls to heav'n.
Its light descending from above,
Our gloomy world to cheer;
Displays a Saviour's boundless love,
And brings His glories near.
It shows to man his wand'ring ways,
And where his feet have trod;
And brings to view the matchless grace
Of a forgiving God.
O'er all the strait and narrow way
Its radiant beams are cast;
A light whose never weary ray
Grows brightest at the last.
It sweetly cheers our fainting hearts
In this dark vale of tears;
Life, light, and comfort it imparts,
And calms our anxious fears.
This lamp thro' all the dreary night
Of life shall guide our way,
Till we behold the clearer light
Of an eternal day.
By inspiration giv'n!
Bright as a lamp its doctrines shine,
To guide our souls to heav'n.
Its light descending from above,
Our gloomy world to cheer;
Displays a Saviour's boundless love,
And brings His glories near.
It shows to man his wand'ring ways,
And where his feet have trod;
And brings to view the matchless grace
Of a forgiving God.
O'er all the strait and narrow way
Its radiant beams are cast;
A light whose never weary ray
Grows brightest at the last.
It sweetly cheers our fainting hearts
In this dark vale of tears;
Life, light, and comfort it imparts,
And calms our anxious fears.
This lamp thro' all the dreary night
Of life shall guide our way,
Till we behold the clearer light
Of an eternal day.
