Mother I Thank You For The Bible You Gave Me Lyrics
Written by Clarke VanNess

Recorded by Hank Snow



Mother I'm leaving and I'm proud to go please don't be grieving I love you so

Here in this pocket over my heart is the Bible you gave me your gift as we part

My country needs me you know that's true pray for me mother till this war is through

God will protect me you must be brave mother I thank you for the Bible you gave

Mother I'm writing this letter to say I love my Bible I read it each day

And when I read it my body's drawn near the blessed scripture they love to hear

Mids all this turmoil of earthly things what peace and comfort the Holy word brings

Mother don't worry I will be saved mother I thank you for the Bible you gave

Mother when battle just has been won you'll have a hero now for a son

I have been wounded left there for that God in his mercy spared me instead

My Bible saved me it played its part it's stopped the bullet aimed at my heart

Your blessed present my life has saved mother I thank you for the Bible you gave
