Lyrics
The Bible Survived
Tommy Carter, Copyright 2004
Verwe 1
This woman once told me about the bible she kept.
That book was so weathered and torn, faded and,mostly
well-worn.
She so carefully smoothed those wrinkled pages with
her hands as she told me how this Bible came to be
this way.
She said it had most lately survived a flood.
Chorus
And she said, This Bible has survived fires, floods,
and tornados.
It hsd seen me through all of my times and it has survived
all of nature's works and allthose things a woman does to
survive all her trials.
Verse 2
She said, And I could always tell you about the strife
and the troubles and the bad times and the good times
too.
I could tell you all about thosethings it has seen in our neighborhoods.
I could go on an on about it all but I think it's best said
the Bible has always survived.
Repeat chorus
