| 1 | Thou art the Word and Spirit, Lord; |
| | Now in one spirit worship we; |
| | ’Tis by the Word we understand, |
| | And in the Spirit contact Thee. |
| 2 | Since Thou with me hast joined in one, |
| | Thou art my all, O Lord, thereby; |
| | And as the Spirit and the Word |
| | Thou cam’st to me as my supply. |
| 3 | If Thou art Lord, yet not the Word, |
| | How couldest Thou be known to me? |
| | If Thou art God yet Spirit not, |
| | How could I ever contact Thee? |
| 4 | The Word reveals Thyself to me |
| | And knowledge of Thyself imparts; |
| | The Spirit is Thy substance true |
| | Whereby I touch Thee as Thou art. |
| 5 | Thou art my life, my light, my way, |
| | My food, my strength and guaranty; |
| | By Word made known, as Spirit these |
| | Become experience to me. |
| 6 | Thy Word in Scripture is expressed, |
| | Thy Spirit, the Indwelling One; |
| | Thy Word is spirit and is life |
| | When to my spirit it doth come. |
| 7 | If I Thy Word would understand, |
| | I must Thy Holy Spirit touch; |
| | Not only grasp it with my mind, |
| | But with my spirit, praying much. |
| 8 | Thy precious Word my heart doth love, |
| | My spirit fellowships with Thine; |
| | My heart rejoices in Thy Word, |
| | My spirit praises sings in Thine. |
