Give me the dear old Bible
as my guide each day,
Be it my help and comfort
on my pilgrim way,
Until the gates of glory
I at last shall see,
The dear old Bible
is good enough for me.
Good enough for me,
good enough for me,
The dear old Bible is
good enough for me.
Good enough for me,
good enough for me,
The dear old Bible
is good enough for me.
Give me the dear old Bible
as my teacher true,
Precious the words of promise,
old, yet ever new;
On every page
the love of God I plainly see,
The dear old Bible
is good enough for me.
Good enough for me,
good enough for me,
The dear old Bible is
good enough for me.
Good enough for me,
good enough for me,
The dear old Bible
is good enough for me.
Give me the dear old Bible
as a shining light,
That will illumine me
and guide my steps aright,
Be it my sword
to drive away the enemy,
The dear old Bible
is good enough for me.
Good enough for me,
good enough for me,
The dear old Bible is
good enough for me.
Good enough for me,
good enough for me,
The dear old Bible
is good enough for me.
Give me the dear old Bible
when my life shall end,
When in the vale of shadow
it will comfort lend;
It shall endure for time and all eternity,
The dear old Bible
is good enough for me.
Good enough for me,
good enough for me,
The dear old Bible is
good enough for me.
Good enough for me,
good enough for me,
The dear old Bible
is good enough for me.
