Dust On The Bible Lyrics - I Saw The Light: The Unreleased Recordings - Hank Williams

I went into a home one day just to see some friends of mine 

Of all their books and magazines, not a Bible could I find 

I asked them for the Bible when they brought it, what a shame 

For the dust was covered o'er it, not a fingerprint was plain 

Dust on the Bible, dust on the Holy Word 

The words of all the prophets and the sayings of our Lord 

Of all the other books you'll find, there's none salvation holds 

Get the dust off the Bible and redeem your poor soul 

Oh, you can read your magazines of love and tragic things 

But not one word of Bible verse, not a scripture do you know 

When it is the very truth and it's contents good for you 

But it's dust is covered o'er it 

And it's sure to doom your poor soul

Dust on the Bible, dust on the Holy Word 

The word of all the prophets, and the sayings of our Lord. 

Of all the other books you'll find, there's none salvation holds 

Get the dust off the Bible and redeem your poor soul. 

Oh, if you have a friend you'd like to help along life's way 

Just tell him that the Good Book shows a mortal how to pray 

The best advice to give him that will make his burdens light 

Is to dust the family bible trades the wrong way for the right
