Pick up your Bible

Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2 Tim 2:15
Pick up your Bible, and read some today
Maybe start out with John, but do not delay
If you don’t want to read for an hour or two
Then start with a chapter, at 'six, ten and two'
You’ll find when you start, God will open your eyes
You’ll read much about sin, and man’s pride, and his lies
But you’ll read of forgiveness, for all we have done
How a Savior from heaven, has already come
How He died on the cross, to cleanse all our sin
How He loves us so much, He wants us, with Him
Receive Jesus today (John 1:12), He paid the price on the cross
He wants none to perish (2 Peter 3:9), He came for the lost
But it’s not automatic, as many might say
Admit you’re a sinner, believe and surrender today (Rom 10:9-13)
You can’t keep the commandments, you’ll slip every day
So come now to Jesus, there’s no other way
When you receive Jesus, He’ll come near to you (James 4:8)
He’ll protect, lead and guide you, in all that you do
Then you’ll open your Bible, to find more about Him
And you’ll see that the Bible, is more than just sin
From Proverbs, to Romans, to Mark and through Psalms
Genesis to Revelation, It's where you belong
The Bible may cause you to weep, or to smile
And praise God Almighty, giving thanks all the while
It will teach you to live and teach you to love (1John 2:5)
And to thank God for Jesus, whom He sent from above (John 3:16)
And then, when you finish, you'll say, “ Amen and Amen! ”
"And because you love Jesus, you'll start over again"
"Just Tell 'Em About Jesus!"
