LYRICS Funeral home gave me a box Watch Wallet And this Leather's cracked like the dirt in a drought Duct tape on the spine where the pages fell out Coffee ring on Psalms, a tobacco stain on John Dates in the margins from before I was born I knew he read it every mornin' 'fore the sun Sittin' at the table with his boots half on But I never asked him what it meant to him I was too busy livin' on the faith of him I rode on his believin' Like I rode on his knee Dad's old Bible Worn soft as his hands Every word he underlined I'm startin' to understand It was his faith Now it's gotta be mine Lord, meet me in the pages Of Dad's old Bible Found the day I was born written by Isaiah forty "They shall mount up with wings," then "Lord, keep him from the worry" Found the year he lost his job in the back of Job "Though he slay me, yet will I trust," and he circled it twice, I know Found Mama's name on the page about a wife of noble worth Found my brother's name by the verse about the prodigal's return And the night I left for college, there's a note in Proverbs three "Lean not unto thine own understanding," and the words "for Wade" for me I rode on his believin' Like I rode on his knee Dad's old Bible Worn soft as his hands Every word he underlined I'm startin' to understand It was his faith Now it's gotta be mine Lord, meet me in the pages Of Dad's old Bible Preacher told me once that God ain't got no grandkids You can't get to heaven on what your daddy did Every man's gotta meet Him on his own two feet Can't borrow it, can't buy it, can't inherit it complete So I started readin' where he left his ribbon at Second Timothy, and I almost fell back 'Cause it talked about a faith passed down the family line That lived in Lois and Eunice, and in Timothy in time Second Timothy, chapter one "When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee Which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice And I am persuaded that in thee also" In thee also Dad, it's in me now Dad's old Bible Worn soft as his hands Every word he underlined I'm startin' to understand It was his faith Now it's gotta be mine Lord, meet me in the pages Of Dad's old Bible Now I read it every mornin' with my coffee and my boots My boy climbs in my lap, wants to see the pictures too I got my own pen, and I'm writin' in the side Next to Daddy's notes, my own dates and my own lines Someday it'll go to him in a box like mine did With a watch and a wallet and a faith he'll have to live And I pray he'll find my handwriting next to Dad's And meet the same Lord that his granddaddy had Dad's old Bible Worn soft in my hands Every word that we underlined He'll come to understand It was our faith Now it's gotta be his Lord, meet him in the pages Of Dad's old Bible Duct tape on the spine Three sets of handwriting One Lord Thanks, Dad #WadeWells #ChristianCountry #CountryGospel #ChristianMusic #LyricVideo #StillGotJesus
