Holy Bible, Book Divine
John Burton (1803) • English
Primary Scripture: Psalm 23
Verse 1
Holy Bible, book divine, Precious treasure, thou art mine; Mine to tell me whence I came, Mine to teach me what I am:
Verse 2
Mine to chide me when I rove; Mine to show a Savior's love; Mine thou art to guide and guard; Mine to punish or reward;
Verse 3
Mine to comfort in distress, Suffering in this wilderness; Mine to show by living faith, Man can triumph over death;
Verse 4
Mine to tell of joys to come, And the rebel sinner's doom; O thou holy book divine, Precious treasure, thou art mine.
