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

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
[ guitar ]
You 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 soul
