’Tis so Sweet to Read My Bible

’Tis so sweet to read my Bible,
Word by word and day by day;
As I read the Lord speaks to me!
On His word I’ll ever stay.

There’s a feast spread in the Bible,
For His word is man’s true food.
How I long to eat more, for I,
Have tasted the Lord is good.

So much wealth is in the Bible,
Mine its words for precious ore.
In it I find all God’s riches,
They become my treasure store!

Words of love are in the Bible,
Unveiling the Author’s heart.
These words draw and woo His seekers,
Making them His counterpart.

Yet, most precious in the Bible,
Is not wisdom, truth and grace.
But behind its words is Jesus!
I behold Him face to face.
