Holy Bible, book divine, precious treasure, thou art mine;
Mine to tell me whence I came, mine to teach me what I am.
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;
Mine to comfort in distress—suffering in this wilderness;
Mine to show, by living faith, man can triumph over death;
Mine to tell of joys to come and the rebel sinner’s doom.
O thou holy book divine, precious treasure, thou art mine.
