Lyrics
1 I've found that earth's waters will ne'er satisfy,
I sought for refreshing and cheer;
Its cisterns were broken, its fountains were dry,
Its joys like the dews disappear.
Refrain:
My mother's old Bible is true;
From cover to cover, all true!
A message of love,
'Twas sent from above;
My mother's old Bible is true.
2 I turned to the Bible, glad tidings I read,
Of rivers unfailing and bright;
Of Christ the Good Shepherd, who safely hath led
His flock by the streams of delight. Refrain
