The church of Christ, like a flower, needs each petal Don't let your Bible gather dust Without the Word our hearts would harden into metal Don't let heart begin to rust: Take the time to read, Jesus took the time to bleed For our sins The light of God, like a fire, needs each ember Don't hide its brilliance in the shade Until the spark of the Spirit fills each member Don't let your faith begin to fade: Take the time to read Jesus took the time to bleed For our sins
