There's a book I've always treasured.
That I'll keep where're I'm led;
It has brought me joy unmeasured,
It's the Bible mother read.
All the pages are so fingered,
Many verses underlined:
Places worn where Mother lingered.
where she left a tear behind.
Yes, this precious book I'll cherish,
I will read it ev'ry day.
For its truth will never perish
Though the world should pass away.

A bible like that is a treasure indeed!
I love the markings other people leave behind.
