Cover To Cover
by Wes King

Back in the days of deep and wide
Highways and hedges and Sunday school pledges
Back in the days when I could hear
The lions roaring in the lion's den

Back in the days when I first read
Jesus love me in the B-I-B-L-E
When Zacheus was a wee little man
And a wee little man was he
With my child like faith
And my clip-on tie
I would raise my hand
Raise my hand high

I want to read my Bible from cover to cover
Line by line, over and over
The more I read, the more I find, the more I uncover
Stories just like mine, I begin to discover
I want to read my Bible from cover to cover

There's still a fountain flowing deep
Deep in the heart of me it widens my memory
Makes me remember the pledge I made
To follow the Master from here to ever after

I've stood strong like Daniel
I've fallen like David
I've wandered in the desert like the Israelites
I've denied You like Peter
I've struggled like Paul
Run from You like Jonah
But You loved me through it all

I want to read my Bible from cover to cover
Line by line, over and over
The more I read, the more I find, the more I uncover
Stories just like mine, I begin to discover
And I want to read my Bible
I want to live my live

I want to read my Bible from cover to cover
Line by line, over and over

I want to read my Bible from cover to cover
Line by line, over and over
The more I read, the more I find, the more I uncover
Stories just like mine, I begin to discover
I want to read my Bible from cover to cover
Line by line
