The Bible is the Greatest Book on Earth

This is the greatest book on earth,
Unparalleled it stands;
Its author God, its truth Divine,
Inspired in every word and line,
Tho' writ by human hands.

This is the living rock of truth
Which all assaults defies.
O'er every stormy blast of time
It towers with majesty sublime;
It lives, and never dies.

This is the volume of the Cross;
Its saving truth is sure;
Its doctrine pure, its history true,
Its Gospel old, yet ever new,
Shall evermore endure.

—Copied from the Introduction of Explore the Book by J. Sidlow Baxter.

Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever. Psalm 119:160
