Dust on the Bible

Dust on the Bible, dust on the holy word

The words of all the prophets and the sayings of our Lord

Of all the other books, you'll find, there's none salvation holds

Get that dust off the Bible and redeem your poor soulI went into a home one day to see some friends of mine

Of all the books and magazines, not a Bible could I find

I asked them for the Bible, when they brought it, what a shame

For the dust was covered o'er it, not a fingerprint was plainDust on the Bible, dust on the holy word

The words of all the prophets and the sayings of our Lord

Of all the other books, you'll find, there's none salvation holds

Get that dust off the Bible and redeem your poor soulYou can read your magazines, read of love and tragic things

And not one verse of Christian, not one verse do you know

When it is the very truth and its contents good for you

Dust on the Bible will doom your poor soulDust on the Bible, dust on the holy word

The words of all the prophets and the sayings of our Lord

Of all the other books, you'll find, there's none salvation holds

Get that dust off the Bible and redeem your poor soul
