#178: The Bible Stands

(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith)

1

The Bible stands like a rock undaunted

‘Mid the raging storms of time;

Its pages burn with the truth eternal,

And they glow with a light sublime.

CHORUS

The Bible stands tho the hills may tumble,

It will firmly stand when the earth shall crumble;

I will plant my feet on its firm foundation,

For the Bible stands.

2

The Bible stands like a mountain tow’ring

Far above the works of men;

Its truth by none ever was refuted,

And destroy it they never can.

CHORUS

3

The Bible stands, at it will forever

When the world has passed away;

Bi inspiration it has been given —

All its precepts I will obey.

CHORUS

4

The Bible stands ev’ry test we give it

For its Author is divine;

By grace alone I expect to live it

And to prove it and make it mine.

CHORUS
