A Little More Bible

A little more Bible in heart and in life, A little more Bible in battle and strife, A little more Bible's the thing that we need When feet walk the rough road of life till they bleed, And souls sink in sadness, and times are distraught With blood dearly given and joy dearly bought.
A little more Bible before we can say The light of our banners has conquered the way; A little more Bible in business and art, A little more Bible in spirit and heart, In progress and pageants of power and advance, A little more Bible ere taking a chance.
A little more Bible — it must be the thing Wrought deep in our life if the metal's to ring With the true ring of gold and the pure sounding song Of a voice of true love to the hearts of the throng. The king on his throne and the slave at his gate Need a little more Bible to balance their fate.
A little more Bible in daily affairs — How sweetly 'twould lighten the burden and cares! How much would it waken the hours and the days With sunlight and fragrance and music of Mays Far down the green childhoods of joy and delight — A little more Bible to set us just right! — Baltimore "Sun."
