“My Bible” Poem

I found this peom in the book “Bible Doctrines for Today” by Michael C. Bere.  I think it’s cute! :smile:

                                                                   My Bible                                                                         

                                                    Though the cover is worn,

                                                      And the pages are torn

                                          And though places bear traces of tears,

                                                  Yet more precious than gold

                                                     Is the Book worn and old,   

                                           That can shatter and scatter my fears.

                                                      When I prayerfully look

                                                      In the precious old Book,              

                                                 As my eyes scan the pages I see

                                                           Many tokens of love

                                                        From the Father above,

                                                 Who is nearest and dearest to me.

                                                        This old Book is my guide,

                                                         ’Tis a friend by my side,

                                                It will lighten and brighten my way;

                                                         And each promise I find

                                                   Soothes and gladdens my mind

                                                      As I read it and heed it today.

                                                                                         -Author Unkown
