Lyrics

There’s a Sav­ior who of­fers to free you from sin,
Look in the Bi­ble for that!
Who’ll keep you from fall­ing, the vic­to­ry to win,
Look in the Bi­ble for that.

There’s a king who now of­fers a share in His throne,
Look in the Bi­ble for that!
A king who will give you all things for your own,
Look in the Bi­ble for that.

He is pa­tient­ly wait­ing, and asks for your heart,
Look in the Bi­ble for that!
’Tis on­ly your will that will keep you apart,
Look in the Bi­ble for that.
