An Open Bible For The World
May This Our Glorious Motto Be!
On Every Breeze Its Flag Unfurled
Shall Scatter Blessings Rich And Free.

Blest Word Of God! Send Forth Thy Light
Over Every Land And Every Sea,
Till All Who Wander In The Night
Are Led To God And Heav’n By Thee.

Wherever It Goes Its Golden Light,
Streaming As From An Unveiled Sun,
Shall Dissipate The Clouds Of Night,
Undo The Work That Sin Has Done.

It Shows To Men The Father’s Face,
All Radiant With Forgiving Love;
And To The Lost Of Adam’s Race
Proclaims Sweet Mercy From Above.

It Tells Of Jesus And His Death,
Of Life Procured For Dying Men;
And To Each Soul Of Humble Faith,
It Sonship Gives With God Again.

It Offers Rest To Weary Hearts,
It Comforts Those Who Sit In Tears;
To All Who Faint, It Strength Imparts,
And Gilds With Hope Th’ Eternal Years.
