Lyrics for Song: Family Bible
Lyrics for Album: The Land of many Churches [1971]
There's a family Bible on the table
It's pages are torn and hard to read
But the family Bible on the table
Will ever be my key to memories.
At the end of day when work was over
And when the evening chores were finallydone
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.
--- Instrumental ---
This old world of ours is full of trouble
This old world would, oh, so better be
If we had more Bibles on the tables
And mothers singing rock of ages cleft for me.
I can see us sittin' round the table
When from the family Bible dad would read
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...
