Lyrics: Bible For A Boy (For Jaycee)

Buy a Bible for a boy 'fore he's even one year old

King James bound in leather and his name engraved in gold

'Cause one day, he'll pick it up when he puts down them toys


Buy a Bible for a boy


Buy a Bible for a boy, he'll hang a cross up in his truck

And he'll say his first "Lord, help me" prayer on his way to pick her up

And he might not believe it yet, and that'll be his choice


Buy a Bible for a boy


'Cause you can't buy your faith or the answer to life's questions

You can't pay your way for a ticket into Heaven

Take it from a man who finally heard that red letter voice


Buy a Bible for a boy


Buy a Bible for a boy, and when life starts throwing punches

He'll open it and learn about a man who knows what tough is

There's a stirring in his heart and a yearn to fill that void


So buy a Bible for a boy


'Cause you can't buy your faith or the answer to life's questions

You can't pay your way for a ticket into Heaven

Take it from a man who finally heard that red letter voice


Buy a Bible for a boy


Buy a Bible for a boy, and he'll never forget

Two pink lines and nine months, he'll have one that looks like him

First thing he's gonna do for his little pride and joy


Is buy a Bible for a boy
