VERSE 1
If you want'a know whats th matter
With this ole sinful world
While th wind blows sorrow
An' storms of life unhurled
There's a place to get the answer
Written there upon
Four books in th Bible
Matthew, Mark, Luke an' John

CHORUS:
Four books in th Bible
Our Saviour prophisied
Was told his disciples
On Mount Olive high
Th multitude there gathered
Hear th message from
Four books in th Bible
Matthew, Mark, Luke an' John

VERSE 2

Just like oft it said
Men made guiedin' missle
Atomic bombs we dred

Of world an' destruction

Things are now existin'
