Faron Young - Family Bible lyrics

(Rock of ages rock of ages cleft for me)

There's a family Bible on the table each page is torn and hard to read

But the family Bible on the table will ever be my key to memories

At the end of day when work was over and when the evening meal was done

Dad would read to us all from the old family Bible

And we'd count our many blessings one by one

I can see us sittin' round the table when from the family Bible dad would read

And I can still hear my mother softly singing rock of ages rock of ages cleft for me

Now this world would oh so much better be

If we'd find more Bibles on the tables and mothers singing rock of ages cleft for me

Rock of ages rock of ages cleft for me
