231 Treat the Bible Properly
Verse 1
The Bible trails the ages of history.
People treat it like God to such a point:
The Bible takes God’s place in the last days.
This is one thing God hates.
Pre-chorus 1
In His spare time, He had to clarify
the story and source of the Bible.
Or else it could take God’s place in men’s hearts,
they’d condemn and measure God with it.
Chorus
The truth God wants to tell you
is that no theory and no fact
can replace His work and words.
Nothing can take the place of God.
Verse 2
Men can never come before God
if they don’t cast off the net of the Bible.
They must cleanse their hearts of all that could replace Him.
This is the way that He is satisfied.
Pre-chorus 2
Although God only explains the Bible here,
don’t forget there are many other things
that mankind worships, adores in error;
what they don’t worship truly comes from God.
Chorus
The truth God wants to tell you
is that no theory and no fact
can replace His work and words.
Nothing can take the place of God.
Bridge
The Bible is an example God uses
as a reminder not to choose the wrong path,
and not to fall into extremes or confusion again
while believing in God and accepting His words.
Chorus
The truth God wants to tell you
is that no theory and no fact
can replace His work and words.
Nothing can take the place of God,
nothing can take the place of God.
