There is an ancient, blessed book

There is an ancient, blessed book,Sent down from age to age;Admiring angels bend to lookUpon its hallowed page.

Preserved by wondrous care and skill,For our instruction given,It speaks of God, and shows his will,And points the way to heaven.

O let us seek for heavenly graceTo hear and read aright!Till we behold the Saviour's face,And faith gives place to sight.
