“This Book of the law shall… make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success” (Joshua 1:8). “O God, Thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared Thy wondrous works” (Psalm 71:17). “Train up a child… Have not I written to thee excellent things in counsels and knowledge, that I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth?” (Proverbs 22:6,20). “Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of Me” (John 5:39).
This Book of the law from God’s heart,
By which we have heard His commands,
Holds truth that should neither depart
Our mind, nor our mouth, nor our hands.
This Book has the key to success
As we are obeying God’s truth.
We dare not, then, settle for less
As we are now training our youth!
This Book shows the works of our Lord
With prophecies which He fulfilled.
These excellent things we’ve explored
Command every doubt to be stilled!
This Book should be searched every day,
For therein we see Jesus Christ
As prophecies clearly display
Our Savior for us sacrificed.
This Book is a light to our path,
Which rightly will govern behavior.
It tells how the lost escape wrath
By putting their trust in our Savior.
O Lord, we give thanks for this Book!
How wondrous the works are therein!
Its Gospel still saves those who look
And trust You to save them from sin!
