Open Up The Book And Take A Look

(album: By Request - 1964)

It's all written there
Open up the Book and take a look
It's all written there
Open up the Book and take a look

Adam was the first man ever invented
He lived all alone and was never contented
The Lord took a rib and He made him a mate
Then Brother Adam made his first mistake

It's all written there
Open up the Book and take a look
It's all written there
Open up the Book and take a look

Satan came along with an apple so bright
He tempted Eve and she took a big bite
Then came the troubles that we all know
Handed down from a long time ago

It's all written there
Open up the Book and take a look
It's all written there
Open up the Book and take a look

Jonah went for a sail against the word of the Lord
Storm came up and they threw him overboard
Then came a whale and it swallowed him down
Three days later he was back on the ground

It's all written there
Open up the Book and take a look
It's all written there
Open up the Book and take a look
