Give me the Bible, star of gladness gleaming,
To
cheer the wanderer lone and tempest tossed,
No
storm can hide that peaceful radiance beaming
Since
Jesus came to seek and save
the
lost.
Refrain
2
Give
me the Bible when my heart
is
broken,
When
sin and grief have filled my soul with fear,
Give
me the precious words by Jesus spoken,
Hold
up faith's lamp to show my Savior near.
3
Give
me the Bible, all my steps enlighten,
Teach
me the danger of these realms below,
That
lamp of safety, o'er the gloom shall brighten,
That
light alone the path of peace
can
show.
