 1  Oh, how I love this blessed Book!

       The story of redeeming grace,

    Love letter of my Bridegroom's heart

       And mirror of my Savior's face.

 

 2  Oh, how I love this blessed Book!

       My checkbook on the bank above,

    Deed of my heavenly heritage

       And dying will of Him I love.

 

 3  Oh, how I love this blessed Book!

       Bright telescope through which I view

    The wonders of the world to come

       And gaze on glories ever new.

 

 4  Oh, how I love this blessed Book!

       My Guide Book all my earthly way,

    The lamp that cheers my darkest night,

       The sunshine of my brightest day.
