Family Bible - Willie Nelson/with Bobbie Nelson

There's a family bible

On the table

Its pages

Worn and hard to read

But the family bible

On the table

Will ever be my key

To memorie

At the end of day

When work was over

And when the evening

Meal was done

Dad would read

To us

From the family bible

And we'd count

Our many blessings one by one

I can see us sittin' round

The table

When from the family bible

Dad would read

And I can hear

My mother

Softly singing

Rock of ages

Rock of ages

Cleft for me

Now this old world

Of ours is filled with trouble

This old world

Would also better be

If we'd found more bibles

On the table

And mothers singing

Rock of ages

Cleft for me

I can see us sittin' round

The table

When from the family bible

Dad would read

And I can hear

My mother

Softly singing

Rock of ages

Rock of ages

Cleft for me

Rock of ages

Rock of ages

Cleft for me
