I Believe the Bible (EN 4135)

1

I believe the Bible, it taught me how to pray,

Jesus heard and answered, took my sins away;

Gave me peace and pardon, wrote my name above,

Glory hallelujah! for His wondrous love.

I believe the Bible, O it is divine!

Heaven’s golden sunlight in its pages shine;

Lights my way to glory, and I’m surely going thro’;

I believe the Bible, for ’tis ever true.

2

I believe the Bible, it teaches me to sing,

Moses’ song of vict’ry o’er the tyrant king;

Or with Paul and Silas, midnight brings release,

Glory hallelujah! for His perfect peace.

3

I believe the Bible, of holiness it speaks,

Gracious gift of Jesus to the one who seeks;

Tells of keeping power, ’neath the cleansing flood,

Glory hallelujah! for the precious blood.

4

I believe the Bible, it teaches me to run

In this royal highway till the prize is won;

Shows the crown awaiting, if I win the race,

Glory hallelujah! for His saving grace.

5

I believe the Bible, and then the world will see

We have been with Jesus more like Him to be;

With His Word abiding in our hearts made new,

That will prove the blessed Book is always true.
