The Old Book and the Old Faith

[Play Midi]
- 'Mid the storms of doubt and unbelief we fear
Stands a Book eternal that the world holds dear
Thru the restless ages it remains the same
'Tis the Book of God, and the Bible is its name!
- 'Tis the Book that tells us of the Father's love,
When He sent His Son to us from heav'n above
Who by richest promise creates hope within
For 'tis thru His blood we are saved from ev'ry sin!
- 'Tis the Book that tells us of the will of God
And the savior's teachings while the earth He trod
How He soothed earth's sorrows and relieved its woe
Thru whom strength is given to conquer ev'ry foe!
- 'Tis the Book that tells us of eternal life
After faithful service in a world of strife
And this glorious triumph over death's dark fears
Is the world's best gift in an age of countless tears!
Chorus:
The old book and the old Faith
Are the Rock on which I stand!
The old Book and the old Faith
Are the bulwark of the land!
Thru storm and stress they stand the test
In ev'ry clime and nation blest;
The old Book and the old Faith
Are the hope of ev'ry land!
