Reading The Bible (Unedited)

Reading the Bible is how I fill up

The Word is the truth overflowing my cup

I read and relax; peace settles in

Angels surround me right as I begin

Flipping through pages looking for truth

Doesn’t take long or even a sleuth

Minutes a day; that’s all I need

I just want a verse or two I could read

My soul craves direction; the Bible’s my map

I’m chasing down God and closing the gap

He opens His arms just waiting for me

And gives me examples of how I should be

And when I forget, I open the Word

That’s how my problems always are cured

If you don’t believe me go give it a try

Ask God to read with you and soon you’ll know why

Your worries will fade; your spirits will lift

The Bible’s our present; it’s everyone’s gift

I’ll keep it aside me the rest of my days
