Religion
The Bible
From Sacred Poems and Hymns (1854)
Religion
Behold the Book, whose leaves display
Jesus, the Life, the Truth, the Way;
Read it with diligence, with prayer,
Search it, and you shall find Him there.
So let me read, digest, and learn,
That all its truths I may discern;
The entrance of Thy Word gives light,
Lord, grant me to receive my sight.
