Tune: Merton
('Hark a herald voice is sounding')
Ephesians 5 v.18-21
*********
Be not drunk with wine, there excess
But filled with the Spirit, bless
Your Lord, speaking in psalms, hymns, songs
Spiritual, join heavenly throngs
Singing and making melody
In you heart with praises free
To the Lord, giving thanks always
To God now, through nights and days
Thanks always for all things unto
God, and He our Father too
Thanks give in the name of our Lord
Jesus Christ, true be His word
Submit selves to one another
Unto each sister, brother
In the fear of God let it be
Revering, respectfully

I only tries to help, by adding water to your whisky, or whatever spirit you have! lol.
Oops, nearly mentioned Ch..... It's an Advent hymn in the clip, I think.
Be drunk with kindness and love my friend, especially if you're not driving. Good write!
Thanks Bella.
