 What
Guide Do You Read
They lie on the table side by
side
The Holy Bible and TV guide.
One is well worn
and cherished with pride.
Not the Bible, but the TV
guide.
One is used daily to help folks decide.
No,
not the Bible, but the TV guide.
As the pages are
turned, what shall they see.
Oh, what does it matter, turn
on the TV.
Then confusion reigns, they can't all
agree
On what they should watch on the old TV.
So
they open the Book in which they confide.
No, not the
Bible, but the TV guide.
The Word of God is seldom
read.
Maybe a verse as they fall into bed.
Exhausted
and sleepy and tired as can be.
Not from reading the Bible,
from watching TV.
So then back to the table side by
side,
Lie the Holy Bible and the TV guide.
No time
for prayer, no time for the Word,
The plan of Salvation is
seldom heard.
But forgiveness of sin, so full and
free,
Is found in the Bible, not on TV!
