G                C            G
There's a family Bible on the table
Em                 A7      D7
Its pages torn and hard to read
       G      C            G
But the family Bible on the table
    C          G      D7   G
Will ever be my key to memo-ries

             C                 G
At the end of day when work was over
Em                  A7       D7
And when the evening meal was done
         G       C                  G
Dad would read to us from the family Bible
        C              G         D7     G
And we'd count our many blessings one by one

  C          F                 C
I can see us sitting round the table
                                    G
When from the family Bible dad would read
                 C             G
And I can hear my mother softly singing
            C       G    D7        G
Rock of ages rock of ages cleft for me

                 C               G
This old world of ours is full of trouble
Em                      A7          D7
But this old world would also better be
       G         C             G
If we'd find more Bibles on the tables
                   C       G    D7        G
And mothers singing rock of ages cleft for me

  C          F                 C
I can see us sitting round the table
                                    G
When from the family Bible dad would read
                 C             G
And I can hear my mother softly singing
            C       G    D7        G
Rock of ages rock of ages cleft for me
