G G7

2. Things that we do, 5. Powerful will,

Words that we say, Sober in mind;
When in a spirit of love, how love Yet without love only threatening words
Prevails in this way. Other souls find.

3. The spirit in man, 6. To overcome,

Where our God lives; For this we yearn;
Greatest of gifts we could e’er receive, Oh may a spirit that’s fanned into flame
Freely He gives. Increasingly burn.

4. By His great love, If my own desires

God is so known; Quench the Spirit within,
Only a spirit of love in man Remind me to fan it again.
Makes His love shown.

If my own desires
Quench the Spirit within,
Remind me to fan it again.
