Family Bible Lyrics (Paul Buskirk - Claude Gray - Walt Breeland) © '60 Glad Music, BMI / Pappy Daily Music, BMI
There's a family bible on the table Each page is worn and hard to read But the family bible on the table Will ever be my key to memory
At the end of day when work was over And when the evening meal was done Dad would read to us from the family bible And we'd count our many blessings, one by one
I can see us, sittin' round the table When from the family bible, Dad would read And I can hear my Mother softly singing Rock of ages, rock of ages, cleft for me
-Solo-
Now this old world of ours is filled with trouble But this old world would also better be If we'd find more family bibles on the table And Mother's singing - Rock of ages, cleft for me And I can see us, sittin' round the table
When from the family bible, Dad would read And I can hear my Mother softly singing Rock of ages, rock of ages, cleft for me Rock of ages, rock of ages, cleft for me
(For me)
