I am new — I am old.
My life started before the beginning of creation,
It will end with the coming of the Bright Morning Star.
I've been translated into all the languages of the world,
But my words never change.
For those who seek the Truth — I am here.
For those who seek healing — I am here.
For those who seek comfort — I am here.
Yes, today I am new, my pages edged in gold.
Tomorrow I may be tarnished, tattered and torn;
My pages faded and wrinkled,
Words underlined and circled,
Notes in margins of things to remember.
I may go through fire and flood
Still I'm to be treasured.
Let my words stay with you always.
I will give you love, peace, joy and prosperity,
But the greatest gift of all — life, life eternal.
