A Look Into My Bible

A look into my Bible,
  In mornings dewy hour,
For all the day may bring me,
  Will gird my soul with pow'r;
You who have never tried it,
  Know not the help 'twill be;
But, oh, this word of blessing
  Means so much to me.

Refrain:
It means so much, so much to me,
  Of mercy full and free, full and free;
A smile of love from the Lord above
  Means so much to me.

A heart-to-heart communion
  Before the throne of grace,
Reveals to me more clearly
  The sunshine of His face;
You who have never tried it,
  Know not the light 'twill be;
But, oh, a talk with Jesus
  Means so much to me.

An all-day walk with Jesus,
  While busy moments fly,
Rejoicing in His service,
  Thru grace that He'll supply;
You who have never tried it,
  Know not the joy 'twill be;
But, oh, this life with Jesus
  Means so much to me.
  —Eliza Hewitt (1851-1920)

And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me. Luke 24:44
