So you pass it every day now,
  that book just lying there.
You know that you should read it;
  such riches there to share!

It's not just decoration,
  all covered up in dust.
If you'll read a couple pages,
  then in God just place your trust!

He will open up your eyes now
  if you'll only scriptures read;
He will change your life forever,
  yes, He'll fill you full indeed!

You can read 'bout any passage
  that My Heavenly Father spoke,
And find something so important
  that will give your heart a poke!

There is so much in those Scriptures
  that will help you grow always.
It's a book that every Christian
  should read near every day!

You can talk to God My Father
  as you go to Him in prayer;
Then His answers He has written
  in Those Scriptures lying there!

So when you see it on that table
  as your walking out the door,
Pick it up and read it's pages
  and He'll bless you ten times more!
