Johnny Cash

John R. "Johnny" Cash (February 26, 1932 – September 12, 2003), was an American singer-songwriter, actor, and author, who has been called one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. Although he is primarily remembered as a country music icon, his songs and sound spanned many other genres including rockabilly and rock and roll—especially early in his career—as well as blues, folk, and gospel. This crossover appeal led to Cash being inducted in the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and Gospel Music Hall of Fame. more »

There's a family Bible on the table 
Each page is torn and hard to read
But the family Bible on the table 
Will ever be my key to memories
At the end of day when work was over 
And when the evening meal was done
Dad would read to us from the family Bible
And we'd count our many blessings one by one
I can see us sittin' round the table 
When from the family Bible dad would read
I can hear my mother softly singing rock of ages Rock of ages cleft for me

Now this old world of ours is full of trouble 
This old world would also better be
If we'd find more Bibles on the tables 
And mothers singing rock of ages cleft for me
I can see us sittin' round the table 
When from the family Bible dad would read
I can hear my mother softly singing rock of ages 
Rock of ages rock of ages cleft for me
