Dust On The Bible Songtext
Dust on the Bible, dust on the holy word

The words of all the prophets and the sayings of our Lord ...

Of all the other books you'll find, there's none salvation holds

Get that dust off the Bible and reade'em your poor soul.


I went into a home one day to see some friends of mine

Of all the books and magazines, not a Bible could I find ...

I asked them for the Bible; when they brought it, what a shame

For the dust was covered o'er it, not a fingerprint was plain.



CHORUS



You can read your magazines, read of love and tragic things

And not one verse of scripture, not one verse do you know ...

When it is the very truth and its contents good for you
Dust on the Bible will doom your soul.



CHORUS



EXTRA VERSE

Oh, if you have a friend you'd like to help along life's way

Just tell him that the Good Book shows a mortal how to pray ...

The best advice to give him that will make his burden light

Is to dust the family Bible, trade the wrong way for the right.
