'Wo ni ma tu wa ninu, Ninu wahala aye, 'Wo n ko ni, nipa 'gbagbo Pe a le segun iku. 'Wo lo n so tayo ti n bo, Ati 'parun elese; Bibeli mimo torun, Owon isura temi. |
Holy Bible, Book divine, Precious treasure, thou art mine; Mine to tell me whence I came; Mine to teach me what I am. Mine to chide me when I rove; Mine to show a Savior’s love; Mine thou art to guide and guard; Mine to punish or reward. Mine to comfort in distress; Suffering in this wilderness; Mine to show, by living faith, Man can triumph over death. Mine to tell of joys to come, And the rebel sinner’s doom; O thou holy Book divine, Precious treasure, thou art mine. |
