Dust on the Bible (feat. David Ray)

I 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 plain 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 soul You can read your magazines, read of love and tragic things And not one word of bible verse, not a scripture do you know When it is the very truth and its contents good for you If dust is covered over it? s sure to doom your soul 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 soul Oh, if you have a friend you'd like to help along life's way Just tell him that the Good Book shows a mortal how to pray The best advice to give him that will make his burden light Is to dust the family Bible, trade the wrong way for the right 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 soul
