In The Bible Mother Read

There's a book I've always treasured,
That I'll keep where'er I'm led;
It has brought me joy unmeasured,
It's the Bible Mother read.

All the pages are so fingered,
Many verses underlined;
Places worn where Mother lingered,
Where she left a tear behind.

Yes, this precious book I'll cherish,
I will read it ev'ry day,
For its truth will never perish
Though the world should pass away.

JOHN W. PETERSON
