Blessèd Bible (Smith)

Blessèd Bi­ble! pre­cious trea­sure!

Will of Him who reigns above

Source of bless­ings with­out mea­sure

Telling of a Sav­ior’s love.

I will trea­sure thee

Fondly trea­sure thee

Blessèd Word of Life

I’ll trea­sure thee;

I will trea­sure thee;

Fondly trea­sure thee;

Blessèd Word of Life

I’ll trea­sure thee.

When as­sailed by doubt or sor­row

’Tis this Book alone can give

Hope and cour­age for the mor­row

And all doubt and fear re­move.

Blessèd Bi­ble! much I love thee!

Naught so dear has e’er been giv’n.

I will pon­der well and heed thee

Pointing out the way to Heav’n.
