The good book



In the bible where i look
for help.Speaking of God's
word is what it's for.Showing
you how to find God and you
will be lost no more.For i
read it both day and night
in my heart it brings pure
delight.In my heart i store
its scriptures.In my mind it
shows a picture.In my life it
gives me wisdom,for it tells of
the gifts i have gotten from him.
It tells of the commanments,for which
we should live by.It tells of the
place in heaven reserved for us
for when we die.The light in your
life will never go out if you
read his words about him.
Like the bible it can tell
of the word,to all of God's peoples
