Michael Card - The Book lyrics

Through the paragraphs of prophets In their fiery words and rhymes In the pages of the patriarchs We can read on every line Of the kindness of commandments And of all He undertook That before we called He answered us In the pages of The Book It is the key, it is the door More than ink and cloth and page Each line preserved in blood and tears To speak to each new age Come read the very thoughts of God Hear what wisdom has to say For in three thousand years and more It hasn?t aged a day And the pages of The Book Are turned with trembling awe As we witness wonders there That only faithful saw We go as deep as we can go Look as hard as we can look But we?ve only scratched the surface Of the meaning of The Book So open up your heart and soul To the call and the command Hold a vast and priceless treasure In the palm of just one hand And know true transformation As you take it up and look At the flesh and bone and blood of truth In the pages of The Book And the pages of The Book Are turned with trembling awe As we witness wonders there That only faithful saw We go as deep as we can go Look as hard as we can look But we?ve only scratched the surface Of the meaning of The Book And the pages of The Book Are turned with trembling awe As we witness wonders there That only faithful saw We go as deep as we can go Look as hard as we can look But we?ve only scratched the surface Of the meaning of The Book We?ve only scratched the surface Of the meaning of The Book
