I love the Holy Bible, Lord

It gives joy and light to the path

Of sore distressed and gloomy hearts

It makes my crooked pathway straight

From staying Thy fear has kept me

Thy promises give my heart rest.

Thy fear roused me from deep slumber

And portray’d where my danger lurk’d

After humbling my sinful heart

It is thy word, thy word alone

That cleans’d and sanctified my soul

And brought down thy free grace to me

Who can understand his errors

My secret faults may thou forgive

Keep me back from presumptuous sin

Accept the humble praise I bring

For all these blessings and thy grace

Give me a grateful heart, O Lord.

Amen
