INTRODUCTION

With a well-known melody,
You'll hear some words quite new,
To learn God's books from memory,
This song will help you through.

VERSE 1

Ge-ne-sis and Ex-o-dus,
Then we have Le-vit-i-cus.
Josh-ua, Judg-es, Ruth God brings,
Two of Sam-uel, two of Kings,
First and second chron-i-cles,
All about lifes chal-len-ges.

VERSE 2

Ez-ra, Ne-he-mi-ah next,
Est-her, Job, and Psalms, great text!
Pro-verbs, ec-cle-si-as-tes,
Song of Sol-o-mon will please,
I-sai-ah, Jer-e-mi-ah,
La-men-ta-tions then you saw,

VERSE 3

E-zek-iel and Dan-i-el,
Ho-se-a and then Jo-el.
Am-os, O-ba-di-ah, who?,
Jo-nah,Mi-cah, Na-hum too,
What a name like Ha-bak-kuk,
Zeph-an-i-ah, are you stuck?

VERSE 4

Hag-gai, Zech-a-ri-ah then,
Mal-a-chi will mark the end,
Of the test-a-ment of old,
With all those events fore-told,
Now its the new test-a-ment,
All about the Son He sent.

VERSE 5

Mat-thew, Mark and Luke and John,
Acts and Ro-mans, Corint-thi-ans.
Ga-la-tians, E-phe-si-ans,
Phil-lip-ians, Co-los-si-ans,
Thes-sa-lon-ians, one and two,
Tim-o-thy and Ti-tus too.

VERSE 6

Now we come to Phil-e-mon,
He-brews, James, Pe-ter and John.
Jude is very near the end,
Re-ve-la-tion is the end,
Read these books your faith they'll prod,
Since they are the word of God!
