Verse 1
We all read the same Bible, from cover to cover,
But it’s funny how we find different things to discover.
One’s got a favorite verse, one’s got a favorite line,
And when family gathers, it’s interpretation time.
We pray to the same God, each with our own flair,
Some whisper, some shout, but we know He’s there.
From quiet little churches to mega church halls,
We’re all saying “Amen,” we’re just saying it our way, y’all.
Chorus
Oh, we all read the same Bible, we all pray to the same Lord,
With hands reaching up, voices in one accord.
We’re singing different notes, but our hearts beat the same,
United in love, under one holy name.
Verse 2
Now some say “Old Testament,” and others “New,”
But the stories and the lessons are tried and true.
And sure, we argue over choir spots and pews,
But in the end, we’re together, bound by Good News.
Deviled eggs at the potluck, each recipe ‘divine,’
One Bible, many flavors—God’s grand design.
Some say God’s on speed dial, they’re “in the know,”
But when the chips are down, we all pray low.
Chorus
Oh, we all read the same Bible, we all pray to the same Lord,
With hands reaching up, voices in one accord.
We’re singing different notes, but our hearts beat the same,
United in love, under one holy name.
Bridge
He’s got a long to-do list with all our hopes and fears,
And I bet He’s smiling at us from beyond the years.
We’re all in this together, every creed and every face,
Bound by the words of mercy, love, and grace.
Verse 3
Some of us sing “Amazing Grace” low and slow,
Others belt it out high, make it country or soul.
We all love our neighbor, though we don’t always agree,
One God above us, one family tree.
Yeah, it’s the same Good Book, with verses that bind,
And every church sign reminds us to be kind.
We might ask for different blessings, in voices loud or still,
But we’re all looking up, one mountain, one hill.
Chorus
Oh, we all read the same Bible, we all pray to the same Lord,
With hands reaching up, voices in one accord.
We’re singing different notes, but our hearts beat the same,
United in love, under one holy name.
Outro
So let’s bow our heads and join our hands,
Across this mighty, diverse land.
Different songs, different dreams, but one God above,
We all read the same Bible, we’re all bound by love.
Yawl come see us as FARM dot FM.
Appreciate ya!…
