Family Bible
In the corner of the old oak shelf
Lies a book bound in dust and leather
It's seen better days, a bit worn out
But it holds our family together
Passed down from grandma's hands
Each page a tale of faith and grace
Through trials and tears and wedding bands
It's been our anchor, our saving grace
Oh, the family Bible, threadbare and true
Held in the hands of the ones who knew
It's more than paper, more than lore
It's the faith of those who came before
Mama's favorite verse is where it's creased
The Psalms she read to calm our fears
Grandpa's notes in the margin, some streaked by tears
His wisdom inked across the years
Baptisms, births, through love and loss
We gather 'round and hold it close
Every mark and tear, a line we cross
In faith we find what mattered most
Oh, the family Bible, threadbare and true
Held in the hands of the ones who knew
It's more than paper, more than lore
It's the faith of those who came before
Oh, the family Bible, threadbare and true
Held in the hands of the ones who knew
It's more than paper, more than lore
It's the faith of those who came before
Lies a book bound in dust and leather
It's seen better days, a bit worn out
But it holds our family together
Passed down from grandma's hands
Each page a tale of faith and grace
Through trials and tears and wedding bands
It's been our anchor, our saving grace
Oh, the family Bible, threadbare and true
Held in the hands of the ones who knew
It's more than paper, more than lore
It's the faith of those who came before
Mama's favorite verse is where it's creased
The Psalms she read to calm our fears
Grandpa's notes in the margin, some streaked by tears
His wisdom inked across the years
Baptisms, births, through love and loss
We gather 'round and hold it close
Every mark and tear, a line we cross
In faith we find what mattered most
Oh, the family Bible, threadbare and true
Held in the hands of the ones who knew
It's more than paper, more than lore
It's the faith of those who came before
Oh, the family Bible, threadbare and true
Held in the hands of the ones who knew
It's more than paper, more than lore
It's the faith of those who came before
