[A] [G] [D]
There's a [G] family Bible [D] on the table
[Bm] Each page [E] is torn and [A] hard to read
But [D] the [G] family Bible [D] on the table
Will [G] ever be [D] my key to [A] memories
At the close [G] of day when [D] work was over
[Bm] And when [E] the evening meal [A] was done
Dad [D] would read to [G] us from the [D] family Bible
And [G] we'd count our [D] many blessings one by one
I [G] can see [C] a city [G] round the table
Where from the family Bible [D] Dad would read
I can hear [G] my mother [D] softly singing
Rock of ages, [G] rock of ages [A] cleft for me
This [G]
[A] [D]
old world [G] of ours is full [D] of trouble
[Bm] But this world [E] would oh so [F#] better [A] be
If [D] we'd find [G] more Bibles [D] on the table
And mother singing [G] rock of ages [A] cleft for me
I can [G] see [C] a city round [G] the table
Where from the family Bible Dad [D] would read
I can hear [G] my mother [D] softly singing
Rock of ages, [G] rock [D] of ages cleft for me
Rock of ages, [G] rock [D] of ages cleft for me
