Words & Music: , in The Morn­ing Light!, by (Chi­ca­go, Il­li­nois: Root & Sons Mu­sic Com­pa­ny, 1880), num­ber 48.


There’s a light in the Bible for me,
Yes, for me, in the Book, I am told;
Oh, the light of its love in its richness I see,
As in faith I its pages unfold.

Refrain

There’s a light in the Bible,
That will shine thro’ the valley of death;
There’s a light in the Bible,
That will shine thro’ the valley of death.

There’s a light in the Bible for thee,
With a beautiful, beautiful beam;
’Tis the light for thy way that its dangers may flee,
Oh, then, catch its bright, beautiful gleam.

Refrain

There’s a light in the Bible for all,
It is beaming, all loving and kind;
It will scatter the gloom of the doubts that enthrall;
’Tis the promise, who seek it shall find.

Refrain
