1 | Gods glorious substance Spirit is, |
| His essence, holy and divine; |
| To contact God and Him enjoy, |
| His Spirit I must touch with mine. |
2 | The spirit is the innermost, |
| The part of man most deep and real; |
| If he would contact God in life, |
| Tis with the spirit he must deal. |
3 | The worship which the Father seeks |
| Is in the spirits strength alone; |
| His Spirit into mans would come, |
| That His and mans may thus be one. |
4 | When Spirit unto spirit calls |
| The two commingle and are one; |
| Mans spirit is the Spirits home, |
| The Spirit doth mans life become. |
5 | Mans spirit must Gods Spirit touch |
| If in Gods fulness he would live; |
| Tis only with the spirit thus |
| That he to God may worship give. |
6 | In ministry and fellowship |
| Man to the spirit we must bring; |
| All ministry should turn to prayer, |
| Spirit to spirit answering. |
7 | In spirit we must pray and serve, |
| In spirit touch the life divine, |
| In spirit grow, in spirit build, |
| That Christ thru us may fully shine. |
8 | Lord, to the spirit I would turn |
| And learn to truly contact Thee; |
| Thy Spirit thus will flow with mine |
| And overflow eternally. |
