What A Wonderful Book – Peter Link

What A Wonderful Book

Music and Lyrics by Peter Link

What a wonderful book
My Bible –
My wise old friend –
A living breathing testament of simple truth
Its ancient pages worn and torn from use
Its cover cracked and crumbling
As if I had imposed upon it
Years of abuse
When really it looked after me
Through the wars of heart and mind
Time after time
What a wonderful book
To live by –

What a wonderful book
My Bible
My sword and shield –
A living breathing history of God’s great Love
The unraveling of the mysteries of life –
A cautionary tale
That guides me when I lose my way
And just can’t make it back
And it’s always right there at my finger tips
At the turning of a page
Truth is revealed
What a wonderful book
To live by
It’s my partner in life
A time worn companion
Who’s contents never age

What a wonderful book
My Bible
My turn to friend
Its fifteen hundred pages chart my course through life
A map I’ve learned to follow when I’m lost
And when it gathers dust
Because I go at life alone
And stumble and fall
It’s always there waiting for me
To return and come back home
Time after time
What a wonderful book
My Bible
My wise old friend
