Family Bible

[Verse 1]

There's a family Bible on the table

It's pages worn and hard to read

But the family Bible on the table

Will ever be my key to memories

[Verse 2]

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

[Chorus]

I can see us sitting '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

[Verse 3]

Now this old world of ours is full of trouble

This old world would also better be

If we found more Bibles on the table

And mothers singing rock of ages, cleft for me

[Chorus]

I can see us sitting '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
