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 that dust off the Bible and redeem your poor soul      I went into a home one day to see some friends of mine   Of all the 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 that dust off the Bible and redeem your poor soul      You can read your magazines, read of love and tragic things   And not one verse of Christian, not one verse do you know   When it is the very truth and its contents good for you   Dust on the Bible will doom your poor soul      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 that dust off the Bible and redeem your poor soul
