We’ll
stand by
the Bible,
God’s
message to
man,
Revealing
His love
in
Redemption’s
great
plan;
It tells
how death
entered
with sin
and the
fall,
Of life
freely
offered
through
Jesus to
all.
Refrain
Stand by
the Bible,
walk by
the Bible,
Teach by
the Bible,
revealing
God’s
plan;
Stand by
the Bible,
study the
Bible,
Live by
the Bible,
God’s
message to
man.
No book
so
abounding
in
wonderful
truth,
No guide
so
unerring
for
childhood
and youth,
No counsel
so needed
by man in
his bloom,
No comfort
so sweet
on the
verge of
the tomb.
Refrain
Through
ages when
faith
spurned
the
fetters of
might,
It shone
like a
star on
the bosom
of night;
Its word
was the
rule of
the
millions
who bled,
Its hope
was their
stay when
the last
prayer was
said.
Refrain
We’ll
follow thy
teachings,
blest word
from
above,
We’ll live
by thy
pattern of
infinite
love,
Believing,
obeying,
and
watching
with
prayer,
Till grace
shall for
Heaven our
spirits
prepare.
Refrain
