Dust on the Bible
Written by Johnnie and Walter Bailes,sung by the Blue Sky Boys

 
Dust on the Bible

I went to a home one day to see some friends of mine
Of all their 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 finger print was plain
 
Dust on the Bible dust that's on the Holy Word
The words of all our 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

Oh you can read your magazines read of love and tragic things
But not one word of Bible verse not a scripture do you know
When it is the very truth and its contents good for you
But if dust is covered o'er it it is sure to doom your soul

Dust on the Bible dust that's on the Holy Word
The words of all our 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 your soul

Oh if you have a friend you'd like to help along life's way
Just tell him that the Good Book shows a mortal how to pray
The best advice to give him that will make his burden light
Is to dust the family Bible trade the wrong way for the right

Dust on the Bible dust that's on the Holy Word
The words of all our 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
