Thank God for the Bible tis there we




Thank God for the Bible!
‘tis there we find
The story of Christ and His love—
How He came down to earth
from His beautiful home
In the mansions of glory above.
Thanks to Him we will bring,
Praise to Him we will sing;
For He came down to earth
from His beautiful home
In the mansions of glory above.


While He lived on this earth,
to the sick and the blind,
And to mourners
His blessings were given;
And He said, “Let the little ones
come unto Me,
For of such is
the kingdom of heaven.”
Jesus calls us to come,
He’s prepared us a home;
For He said, “Let the little ones
come unto Me,
For of such is
the kingdom of heaven.”


In the Bible we read
of a beautiful land,
Where sorrow and pain
never come,
For Jesus is there
with a heavenly band,
And ‘tis there He’s
prepar’d us a home.
Jesus calls, shall we stay?
Now we’ll gladly obey;
For Jesus is there
with a heavenly band,
And ‘tis there He’s
prepar’d us a home.


Thank God for the Bible!
It’s the truth o’er the earth
We’ll scatter with bountiful hand,
But we never can tell
what the Bible is worth
Till we go to that beautiful land.
There our thanks we will bring,
There with the angels we will sing
And its worth we can tell,
when with Jesus we dwell
In heaven, that beautiful land.
