I went to a home one day to see some friends of mine
Of all their books and magazines not a Bible could I find
I asked them for the Bible when they brought it what a shame
For the dust was covered o'er it not a finger print was plain
Dust on the Bible dust on the Holy Word
The words of all our prophets and the sayings of our Lord
Of all the other books you'll find there's none salvation holds
Get that dust off the Bible and redeem your poor soul
You can read your magazines of love and tragic things
But not one word of Bible verse not a scripture do you know
When it is the very truth and its contents good for you
But if dust is covered o'er it is sure to doom your soul
Dust on the Bible dust on the Holy Word
The words of all our prophets and the sayings of our Lord
Of all the other books you'll find there's none salvation holds
Get that dust off the Bible and redeem your poor soul
If you have a friend you'd like to help along life's way
Just tell him that the Good Book shows a mortal how to pray
The best advice to give him that will make his burden light
Is to dust the family Bible trades the wrong way for the right
Dust on the Bible dust on the Holy Word
The words of all our prophets and the sayings of our Lord
Of all the other books you'llnfind there's none salvation holds
Get that dust off the Bible and redeem your poor soul
