Family Bible

There's a family Bible on the tableIt's pages torn and hard to readBut the family Bible on the tableWill ever be my key to memory.At the end of the day when work is overAnd when the evening meal was doneDad would read to us from the family BibleAnd we'd count our many blessings one by one.I can see us sittin' 'round the tableWhen from the family Bible dad would readI can hear my mother softly singingRock of Ages, Rock of Ages cleft for me.--- Instrumental ---This old world of ours is full of troubleThis old world would also better beIf we had more Bibles on the tablesAnd mothers singing Rock of Ages cleft for me.I can see us sittin' round the tableWhen from the family Bible dad would readI can hear my mother softly singingRock of Ages, Rock of Ages cleft for me...
